Before becoming a cartoonist, Tom Batiuk taught for several years at a junior high school. If held felt anything like the antipathy that Les has always had for his students, well, it’s fortunate for them that he left teaching for cartooning. Unfortunate for the rest of us though.

Son of Stuck Funky · The web's premiere source for Funky Winkerbean snark
Son of Stuck Funky 
“Google your textbook”, eh? Yet another example of Les answering a (admittedly very stupid) question with a snide, sneering remark featuring his sarcastically-cocked eyebrows and carefully-rendered beard. Oh those kids today and the way they shun knowledge in favor of mindless internet drollery, you know? F*cking Les, what a dick.
You mean, like, the Index and stuff? I suppose that’s fine for those of you geniuses who have sequentially mastered the Alphabet, but that certainly doesn’t leave Owen in good hands, now does it? Asshole.
“Les is an ass” and “his students are morons.” These are out themes.
I’m not sure what directions such paths can take…
I take that back, I can easily see what directions those two paths can take…and what they add up to is several years of Funky Winkerbean.
Ooh, I just want to smack Less in his teeny-tiny mouth!
Well, that didn’t work, Leslie. But, “I hate Les Moore” seems to yield many fruitful results. Make of that what you will. You yellow-shirted asswipe.
This punchline makes no sense. To “Google” something isn’t to search within it; it’s to search for it. Yes, I know the joke is about the kids’ dependency on technology, and Les is saying that they should use their books as they would the search engine. But when Google, as a verb, is in the freaking dictionary, Batuik is just misusing a word.
The joke isn’t funny if you have to change a word’s meaning to make it work.
Owen: “But this worksheet you’ve passed out is a GEOLOGY exam!”
Les: “Hmmm? Not my problem, evil, technology using teen-angster!”
“What textbook? The only reading you’ve ever passed out to us was remaindered copies of your dead wife book. Our first assignment was bringing them to you to sign.”
“And you couldn’t even grovel right! I don’t know why I waste my time with you!”
Well, BatStory did it again. Yesterday, Glasses McDumbass appeared to set up a challenge of GoateeBoy’s practice of tricking and embarrassing his class. Then today, we’re onto something else. CALLED IT! Hey, BatDick, Google how to WRITE.
BatGeezer’s hard-on against the Evil Internet rages on, as if that would surprise anyone. And yes, we KNOW Chullo Head is a numbskull slacker smartass loser who has to ASK where to find basic class material, but when Goatee Prick answers him, Batso aims for “contemporary and glib” but hits “out of touch and dickish.”
Les: “Oh ho! Filthy evil kid wants guidance on how to get information. In the main, I’ll try to speak to him in his own snappy teen ‘slang,’ while at the same time proving to him the shortcomings of his useless, evil Internet.”
Fortunately, today’s episode will help anyone who might have been on the fence about whether or not Goatee boy is a total dick.
“Kids and their internets these days. Whadyagointodo?”
So, will it be Owen or Cody (or god forbid Alex) that turns in a paper copied entirely from the internet? Since we’ve gone around that block twice already i’m pretty sure we’re in for another ride.
Maddie copied a paper off the internet and look what happened….. she disappeared. Not even her Father Crazy Harry acknowledges her existence
Mpook — I thought Maddie, her hat, her bad study habits, and her D- average were off at K*nt State. Where did I see that? Wasn’t that on Swishy Tom and Ayrhead’s mural? (TFH sez: Yes.)
Apparently, K*nt State will take dumbasses, offer full girl’s women’s lady basketball scholarships to skinny, 5’6″ 108 pound white girls, and allow BatCreeper to slink around. But if you do go there, you vanish into a black hole. (Honestly, no pun intended.)
Beanie–Yeah, but that mural also had the kids from Crankshaft, so I didn’t think it was exactly ‘cannon’. Weird but true, that mural had more good-natured college hijinks than this strip ever bothered to cover. Young kids adjusting to the exciting life of college–who would want to see that? Not when you can have Les doing his poor man’s stand-up-routine-masquerading-as-teaching!
…on the “mural” yes. In the comic strip no.
On the “mural” Jim K. is teaching college science, Dinkleberry is with the ksu band, and so on.
But back in the “strip” Maddie, Jinx, Wally’s two kids, CH’s (2) young kids….just vanished.
Not even Lynn Johnson vanquished a character this long..less alone a whole generation.
Would be rather amusing if we were shown Maddie graduating last June and then found her in Les’s class again.
I doubt we’re going to have another plagiarism arc. Owen’s already done it and since Cody’s Les v2.0, Batiuk won’t have him cheat. There is no one else, unless Batiuk has completely lost his mind and decides that tattooed, dyed and fishnet stocking-wearing Alex is somehow a high school student.

Q. Who reads this shit? I mean, who really, really reads this shit?
Funky Winkerbean Trick Question o’ the Day:
Q. Who reads this shit? I mean, who really, really reads this shit?
A. Not proofreaders, that’s for sure.
@ Merry Pookster maybe Maddie, Chien, Jinx, Wally’s two kids, Khan and CH’s two young kids are just hiding behind a prom castle prop, never to be seen again. Along with Becky’s arm. And Dinkle’s hearing aid. And Batuik’s comic genuis.
And whatever happened to Corey, in the Army?
Batominc, you’re dethpicable!
Tommy, rubbing his hands together maniacally: “Boy oh boy, am I going to make Les the most loved character on the comics page!”
