A re-visit of a previous encounter in a strip, a while back?…. – Or same junk, different day for these two?… – Mario….Luigi… Knute?…..

My… Knute certainly is Johnny-on-the-spot today!

Guess it couldn’t hurt for Knute to check again, and make sure he got the whole place!… Not that he’d mind, anyway…

Pitts must not be that crummy of a school if the boys’ room have doors on the stalls, at our middle school we had no doors, and maybe one of five had T.P. that wasn’t missing or worse.

Crystal seems to be the only one at her school with a bladder control problem. She should talk to her doctor — there are medicines that can help.

What was that last P-word that Crystal cut off? Pungent?And good for Crystal, chasing that rapscallion out whilst she does whatever her business may be in the stall!

Ya gotta love how Knute just carries on… blissfully… without the slightest clue… :-) This will be an interesting arc. Perhaps to set up what will happen to them. We’ll see.
And thanks, all! I PASSED exam 2 of 3, yesterday! Only one more to go in another 2-3 months!

Ha ha!! Well, Gunther is possibly also Germanic as well as Jewish…. perhaps his ancestor, Bernard the Calculating was busy getting souvenirs (such as this “I came, I saw, I conquered, I got this lousy T-shirt”, causing more delay) in “Ye King’s Garrison Treasurye and Gift Shoppe”, as well….

FINALLY, The REAL “Fun Couple” Arrives!
Hey Crystal? You SHOULD Grab This Guy Up! At Least He’s been (A-Hem) “Toilet Trained”.
imbaldeagle almost 11 years ago
Weird – yeah, but they seem “wired” as well. A great couple to inject offbeat humor into this strip.
Sportymonk almost 11 years ago
Can anybody find the previous strip like this? Wonder if it is the same one or just similar.

You know, he anticipated her need and cleaned a public toilet for her…if that isn’t true love, I don’t know what is.
imbaldeagle almost 11 years ago
Reminds me of our trip to Vienna. I needed to use the public restrooms and while at the urinal, a female attendant entered the facility and began cleaning up. Must’ve been the usual procedure, because neither she, nor the local male visitors seemed to take notice, BUT I thought it was weird.

I’ve had to use the guys’ washroom before, and I’m not the only girl to do so.
Willow Mt Lyon almost 11 years ago
Why is Knute cleaning toilets instead of being in class? Has he dropped out already and is an employee, not a student?
genorino almost 11 years ago
So where are we going here? We can’t spend a week with Crystal perched on the John. Maybe they’ll talk about New Years Eve and decide to go on another date.

Knute, TAKE A HIKE!Get this review AFTER the performance!
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace almost 11 years ago
You defecate and urinate your wayFree thinkers such as Crystal will do it their way.

Oh poo, all the good jokes have already come out.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace almost 11 years ago
Would it REALLY be stealing if Knute used the supplies for their intended purpose?.I understand there is a union somewhere angry that Knute’s actions reduce public expense of hiring three more janitors, but he means well. He just doesn’t understand the concept of priming the economy.

Knute….Bathroom cleaning fetish????

I was eating some crackers on mt school bus when David Rosenfeld (I think it was) asked for some. I started to pass him the box when I remembered..“Uh, I just remembered; they’re bacon flavored.”.He kept reaching for them and explained they weren’t OBSERVANT Jews..I suspect some of my ancestors abandoned Judaism rather than forego bacon. They became heathens and Baptists.

David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace almost 11 years ago
Still making unsubstantiated assumptions..Since Knute is doing this openly for all to see and no complaint has been filed, theft seems unlikely..He coulg have the permission of the janitor or the principal. Regardless, since he does it with their presumed knowledge, there really is a presumption of permission..While there is the danger of mixing hypochlorite with NH3, we don’t KNOW he has either. It could be pine oil or some soaps..Unlikely, but he COULD be doing OJT and actually being graded on his performance. I know many his age who are..The kid in your school who tried to kill the teacher SHOULD have been sent to jail.Knute is NOT THAT kid.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace almost 11 years ago
You COULD be right or the weird part to her may simply regarding the use of facilities intended for others.That would go along with her willingness to talk to Knute while thusly occupied.
David Huie Green LoveJoyAndPeace almost 11 years ago
On second thought, you probably ARE right since she didn’t call “it” weird until Knute tried to hold a coversation over the sounds of splashing, grunting, plopping or whatever we assume are issuing..Girls are weird about some things. This could be one of them.
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
That’s the part that I couldn’t remember- the part where she mentioned “way cleaner than ours!”…. Thanks!… Plus, the date was fuzzy in my “file”… – There’s also one somewhere, where he’s doing her a favor and someone’s trying on stuff….

Well then you don’t EVER want to hear about former President Lyndon Johnson and his bathroom etiquette…or lack thereof.

SquanderMall seems appropriate when one considers what one spends versus what one really needs.

-Speaking on behalf of the more than 1 million US citizens who have to wear what are called nicely ‘ostomy bags’ due to the need to remove certain body parts or die, and on behalf of the I-don’t-know-how-many girls and women who have what are called ‘heavy periods’, it isn’t about impatience.-Go to the website of the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation. They provide a wallet card for their members that asks for them to be given permission to use restrooms when only employee restrooms are available, for instance, because these problems are real and health-related.-How lucky you are not to have them. How lucky for your friends and relatives not to have them, so they don’t have to disturb you by needing to use a restroom so badly that you believe them to be a ‘freak’.
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Yes… the one from 5/30/12…. and I see now, the stalls had only reminded me of bathroom kinds,… – And the one from today reminded me of the previous week of 4/9-14 of ’12, but for some reason I kept wanting to think ’11 or ’10… again, thanks!…
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
And forgot to mention what I was remembering about the infamous one from 6/1/12….. Knute found that particular garment by… accident….

Knute, you should call her on her cell phone.

Of all the things I expected Godwin’s Law to apply too, cleaning toilets was not among them.
Mikeyj almost 11 years ago
It’s really weird but Knute is one of the few enjoyable characters left in this strip so I ignore the implausibility of him having time to clean the restroom between classes.^^That would explain his grades, though

Leviticus, how could it be an insult when I am a Baptist? I like me
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Like I said…moderation…. have you seen how many burgers Wimpy puts down, and how many different meats Ron puts on his plate at one time?… – Plus, apart from Sonic and Hardees (=your Carl’s Jr) and Checkers (=your Rally’s) When it’s the home cooking (which is 85% of our meals) I usually get turkey burgers as well as beef (sometimes on the bun, sometimes without it as part of the plate)…. so I switch up between them.. our main courses are usually between fish, chicken and burgers (my wife fiends for turkey meatballs in her pasghetti), so I eat burgers one way or another… and I go for Italian, Thai, and Indian cuisine and we both enjoy Mexican food… so, see?…. Everything’s still in moderation!…

There was a scene in Lee Daniels’ The Butler which did display LBJ’s bathroom etiquette (sorry to say).
Actually, I had heard of LBJ’s “bathroom issues” right from ol’ “Tricky Dick” himself. Nixon brought it up in his “David Frost” interviews, shortly after his resignation.
Still, he left out the most important part…. Whether or not LBJ was an “over the top” or “under the bottom…” ;-PPPP

Don’t forget the possibility that he could have been “fond of green grass”, too….. – Could also be possible for such one(s) to have “priors”, or technical offenses of other kinds… – Sad to say, too, some people have ways of getting around the law… not being “legally privileged” to drive, yet crashing “someone else’s car”, or finding a way to get themselves a new ride that they claim for themselves, on a pretense or “technicality” either in a legal loophole, or in not.. being more forthwith about their personal information…. sad to say, some people race cars and treat them as toys, and when “they’re done with it”, “time to get another one!”…..
