High School Madness

“I’m going to cut the soles off my shoes, sit in a tree and learn to play the flute!”

If you’re not familiar with the Firesign Theatre, you may be asking yourself, WTF? In which case, your homework is to listen to Firesign’s 1970 comedy classic, Don’t Crush that Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers. I’ve posted the audio here: http://drop.io/dontcrushthatdwarf_1 (High School Madness begins around 15:20 into “This Side”)

You will still be asking yourself WTF, but you’ll have to admit that Porgy and Mudhead are a hell of a lot funnier than Cody and Owen.

Hey what happened to those two wanna be students (Les & Funky jr.’s?)

TB could at least give us…an Owen and Cody cameo or something.

He’s trite, he’s self-important, but TB is nothing if not clairvoyant: he knew a whole year ago that you snarkers would be clamoring for some Wacky Antics of Cody and Owen®! Three barrels of trash? That’s a lot of caked joy rags!

It's Called Continuity


Y’all thought that the Les-Cayla-Station Wagon Sue thing was going somewhere, didn’t ya? Nope. Welcome to Act IV. Les is finishing up his first year back from a ten-year sabbatical following his suspension for inciting the Great Cafeteria Catfight of 2010/2020.And that student giving him the stink-eye? Not Cory, that’s the hitherto-unseen Wally Jr., now in his sixth year at Westview.

Ten years on, though, Les is still rockin’ that yellow shirt.

“It’s Susan Smith, grown up and pretty! She’s winning Les away from me by reminding him that he saved her life when she attempted suicide!”

I think today’s space would have been put to much better use depicting a wild cafeteria catfight to the death between Cayla “the Crusher” and Susan “the Snake”, as Les appreciatively looks on, wearing that smug smirk we see on his disembodied head at the top of today’s comic.
