Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 25, 2017
Transcript:
Dakota: Hey, guess what, Dweeby Phoebe? I got my ears pierced. Phoebe: Good for you. Dakota: So you know how before, I was like maybe three times cooler and more mature than you? This double that to like six. Phoebe: You're making these up as you go along. Dakota: Cool people get to have their own math.

Sometimes, Dakota can disagree with the facts. By which I mean she can disregard truth, but that doesn’t guarantee that others will beleive what she says.

Numbers don’t lie, but Dakota sure can. “Her own math” gimme a break!

The funny thing is Dakota is ten times less mature than Phoebe.

It’s true. Cool people live in their own reality.

A lie is a lie, no matter what else you call it.

There is so much vanity in this strip!

The so called “cool” kids find out that disappears in college and the real world. It is just a matter of what they believe is most appreciated. Nonsense really. Never followed any of that. I have no interest in being “cool” to some self aggrandizing people.

But not their own facts.

Considering that some infants have their ears pierced, I think Dakota may be mistaken.

Dakota says she is three times cooler and more mature than Phoebe. That means she acknowledges that Phoebe is, indeed, cool and mature.

This strip really made me laugh! I may be the only one here, but I really like Dakota. Her refusal to let Phoebe (or anyone else) control her level of self-esteem is quite refreshing. (Phoebe, OTOH, worries too much about what Dakota thinks of her.)

Congratulations to all commenters who refrained from making the obvious comparison to Dakota.

There is nothing “cooler” than Absolute Zero!

Is “cool” in the eyes of the beholder? Or the ears? Or the nose?
