Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for January 09, 2017

Poor Gil’s arms in P2. They look painful!!

From my daughter’s experience, I know that strobe lights can trigger seizures, and that after one, for days she feels wiped out. That could be the secret behind Aaron’s up and down play.

Drugs are bad, m-kay?

One of my coaches wouldn’t allow us to call “switch.” It was your job to fight through the screen, no matter what.

Hey, I thought today was the day of the big comics platform switcheroo.

It sure looks like Gil would just love to be holding A Quad’s severed head up to the gods in P2.

The clowns in p. 3 look ready to connect the dots!

When I was A Quad’s age molly wasn’t around so I have no first hand experience with it. I understand it makes you very “friendly” and apparently user friendly. Not sure if it’s affects last as long as acid, which keeps you high for at least 12 hours, which in my experience, is about 4 hours too long. I do know that it left me a little foggy for a couple of days after so maybe this stuff is the same way. Or maybe I’m just having a flashback.

In all reality , Double A dances the night away high on X . Come on Gil use taking a team shower as a graphic example of what you’re supposed to do when someone yells Switch. P 3 somebody tell that kid he’s got ants on his face .

So, we’re going to have another dead student already?

P1- Our anti hero looks like George McFly. Observe the alien invasion led by Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan threatening to melt the yutes brains.

I went to the new site this weekend and this morning. The older I get, the less I like change. If we do have to “move”, I believe we can adjust. P1- Aaron looking George McFly as Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan, leads the alien invasion to melt some brains.

No there will be an overdose. But he will be brought back. The way this strips story arcs go it probably won’t be until Memorial day.

Is Gil actually a coach now?

Heather has coached him to think “Switch” means to pass the ball to a player on the opposite side of the pit—court.

Can’t believe not one comment about the aliens holding the raves in MILFord

Is that Molly in the polka dot top in P1? Has kind of a Daisy Mae thing going on.

Panel two. Gil is mimicking the Sumo wrestling figure skater on the Geiko commercial’s trademark move…….. ’the baby bird".

Gil, basketball 101 is actually passing, dribbling, layups, etc. Switching on screens is more of a 300 level course.

P-1: Worshipers of John Tesh music suffer mass seizures. P-2: Gill uses the Macarena to demonstrate secret defensive moves. P-3: Students discuss the long lasting effects of dysentery.

Song (with apologies to Johnny Mathis): I must be going, my high is showing, I know that I better lee e e eev. If I don’t go I’ll be saary. What would my Mollie say?

P1 looks like a scene from a 1966 episode of “Hullaballoo”

If only there were some sort of electronic device AQuad’s teammates could use to research the effects of Molly.

Now we know what Big Ken Brown makes happen. “Switch!”

Only one comment and it’s 12:30pm EST? Odd. I also notice we lost the comments from Saturday’s strip, other than those that were made yesterday.

The new jumbo size isn’t doing the artwork any favors. Aaron’s hand in p1 looks intensely feminine, while polka-dot girl’s hand doesn’t even look human. It reminds me of the descriptions from Roswell, N.M.

Hmm, they are handling replies differently. No way to know someone made one without looking for it.

It took me a while to figure out where to click to make a comment (older and slower), so maybe others are having the same problem. Has anyone succeeded with the link to read the strip from the beginning? I keep getting a page can’t be displayed message.

Well of course he hasn’t recovered. Obviously the whole rave was abducted by aliens, as you can see them invading in P1. And 36 hours of anal probing would leave you out of it at practice too. And speaking of out of it, you’ll be out of it if you don’t read today’s Mopped Up Thorp: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

Now you can see the players in background of P2 snickering at Gil aand Aaron…

Did BKB call the “switch” on the GoComics page?

Well I see our old comments are back. Sort of. Zooming down to 75% helps the layout a bit but still impossible to quickly jump here to see the latest comments while I’m “working”.

Okay i can see the reply I just made to Bitsy but not the one i made this morning or any others you folks have made to anyone else.

Just for ‘Bear’. The background music for panel one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFrGuyw1V8s
