It’s personal

Memo to Nate: I guess it’s acceptable for Westview faculty to date one another; however, it’s not cool to snap Cayla’s bra strap, like you appear to be doing in today’s panel 1.

“How the hell should I know where Les is, Nate? Aren’t you his damn boss?”, would be the appropriate reply from Cayla. Instead, she spreads Les’ business about the office (so much for the concept of “personal” day). Susan snaps to at the mention of the Grounded One’s name.

Panel 3, I believe, is a first for this comic: Susan “breaks the fourth wall” and fixes the reader with an ear-to-ear smirk. But instead of giving a “thumbs up”, she extends an index finger. Les is Number One? Or has Susan  harvested a particularly ripe booger, and preparing to do the ol’ picky flicky?

Update: Merry Pookster has helpfully pointed out that “Susan just appears to be ‘crossing’ her fingers for luck.” OK, that clears that up! Thanks, Pookster. I stand by my “breaking the fourth wall” statement.

Life of Slice

The years have been even less kind to Funky than we knew: not only is he now paunchy and gray-haired, but he’s become too deaf to overhear Les’ stage-whispered threat to Cory. And not for nothing: Water-bottle-gate happened almost a year ago. Is Cory gonna let Les hold that over his head for the rest of his life? If Les only knew what happened to that cigar box full of cancer funds…

Anyway: wherever did they find a pizza costume with a built-in codpiece?

Pizza Crap

Yep, I can see Cory waving a sign around dressed as a slice of pizza or something.

Or nothing! I don’t think anyone here disagrees that the CW is due for his comeuppance. And what could be worse than dressing the cocky, “F the world” little twerp in a pizza costume and putting his punk ass on the street?

I wish to point out that Les looks rather distinguished in panel one. Maybe it’s only when he opens his mouth to speak that he looks like a douche?

Stuff It

See: this is why I always advise my single friends, “Don’t fish in the company pool.” Especially when there are two fish attracted to your “worm”.

“So,” asks Cayla, “what was that all about?” Inside Les’ head appears a menu of possible responses, like in The Terminator…and instead of simply telling Cayla what it was about, Les tries to shut her up with a glib response. Let’s see what possible responses pop up in Cayla’s head…I’m betting against her saying what any self-respecting woman would tell a jerk like Les.
