Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 26, 2015

Worst. Date. Ever.

Bobby’s a playa. Too bad he ain’t got game. And his expanding bald spot has spread to Leisl!

I know Milford’s a throwback, but the last high school boy to wear a tie on a date — at least not ironically — was Wally Cleaver.

Geez, what’s on that pizza? From Bobby’s expression, I’m guessing pepperoni and Adderall.

I dunno, that plume of steam? What did they order, a Nuclear Pizza? (Something tells me that MUT is going to have fun with P2.)

Bobi will be wearing a bolo and sans-a-belt pants within a month which will rock their next dinner date at 4:00 in the afternoon. Hope he brought his tip calculator!

In all reality , in P 2 the waitress was all set to pull the drop the pizza on Bobby’s head gag and in P 3 all of a sudden Bobby’s Xray glasses begin tto work .

Coaches Held Hostage: Day 29 for Gil and Kaz; Day 63 for Mimi, who is extending her own record for most days not coaching a basketball team that you’re the coach of.

I did, but maybe not the way you thought. As opposed to yesterday which was a struggle, today’s MUT was faster and easier than Wendy. But darn, wish I would have thought of the frog legs topping, good call bearwku82.

Tomorrow – BStatWhiz realizes he’s forgotten his wallet and has to call Mike Damone to come bail him out. On the ride home he slips on Side 1 of Led Zeppelin IV to ensure this date (not a date) is a success.

In P1, Bobby impresses Liesl with the old “floating straw” trick. I’m surprised the kids passed on Ricozzi’s specialty, the gum ball and M&M pizza.

What a romantic. Comments are awesome today.

Does Bobby have a home? Parents? Siblings? If he is going to be the main character of this strip, a bit of back story would be nice.

Why!! Look at the pepperoni! It’s the perfect zone defense set up to beat Oakwood!! and my friends said I wouldn’t get lucky on a date with you!!!

Hey MUT! Leisl, what’s that on top, next to the anchovey?Why, Bobby it’s a date. Told ya!!

Congratulations to ‘Cutterjock’! He’s the first of us to actually make the real strip and not just MUT!

(panel two!)

Okay, out of curiosity I scanned the strips back to when basketball started to see how the teams are doing. Both teams may be leading their leagues. Or not, who really knows? Of the games that have been mentioned, the girls are 3-2 but 2-0 in the league. The boys are 5-0. Were there any losses not mentioned or are we looking at another State Title run? How about if the boys are undefeated going into the Playdowns and then have to forfeit most of their wins due to the uncovering of performance enhancing placebos? That would be awesome.

“WTH?”

There must be a new pope, cause there’s white smoke coming from that pizza.

There’s a place in D.C. that doesn’t slice their pizzas. They bring scissors to the table so you can cut it yourself.

Have to kdizzle.
