    Mad Mona thinks Raoul mad! Love her expression in panel 3, and her school uniform!

    She should offer him her body. If he refuses, he’s gay. If he accepts, she’ll be a complete woman.

    “That’s strange, I thought that switch was already flipped when she was born.”

    “Huh, I always thought that would have been a dimmer switch.”

    “Silly rabbit, why would Mona need a switch like that when it’s always on?”

    “What, no “Super Saiyan” mode?” (Though that would be pretty cool. Too bad her default mode would be SSJ3.)

    “Yes, give in to your…Mona? Whoops, thought you were a Jedi. Sorry for the mix-up. You will always have a place with the Sith.”

    “And that’s how Mona was created. Next, I’ll tell you how Mona became the third option in her own comic strip and why the funniest character is also the most hated.”

    But seriously, that switch has been on so long it must be a fire hazard. I know they didn’t replace the wiring, so there’s lead poisoning to worry about. Yep, this is going to be a lot more than a one-shrink job.

    Although I love Mona as much as my scratching, biting cat, I just have to say, BE REAL! You want to forgive her because of her youth environment, go ahead. We all know what she turns into. She didn’t have a deprived childhood, she had a depraved childhood. “Your Honor, my client the ax murderer had mitigating circumstances before he became a menace to society.” Bull! Fry em! Mona, a certain five letter word was invented with you in mind.

    What a fragile person, to allow one heartbreak to totally change ones outlook. Sheesh…life is too short, nurse it a little and move on honey….

    Hey, the cool thing about this is, she did open her heart to Ryan and it turned the switch part of the way back to sane…see how’s she’s been with Lucas on Sunday’s?

    I love it Jen, you are mess girl!

    What I was looking for was proof of something I recall reading somewhere: that Church schools in France are generally exempt and may impose a uniform on les eleves.

    In a past strip, wasn’t it said that Mona goes to a Catholic school?

    AgProv, I believe she’s been shown to have a nun for a teacher, but that was before she “blossomed”. There’s no reason to assume she’s moved on to a public school for the higher grades, but it remains a possibility.

    I don’t know, mine was a Catholic School but we were in uniforms as recently as the ’90s and ’00s.
