The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for June 05, 1999
Transcript:
Riley: I got ripped off today, Granddad. I bought a lightsaber that can't cut anything. Granddad: Did you return it to the store, boy? Riley: I tried. They wouldn't give me my money back. Those punks kept my twenty bucks! Granddad: Boy, where did you get twenty bucks??!! Riley: Did I say twenty? Uh...I meant two. Two bucks. Mental note: never complain about ill-gotten gains...
If there were actual consequences to Riley’s antics this week—preferably a sound butt-whippin’ by Granddad—we sure didn’t see it. He should have been more upset with Riley assaulting neighborhood girls than the loss of twenty bucks. And no reaction from Jazmine’s or Cindy’s folks? And—HELLO???—Jazmine’s dad is a lawyer.
