My friend’s English class once dissected a poem and it turned out the poem meant, “Don’t dissect poetry.”

As an artist/writer myself, I can attest to the fact that studying an art can hinder your enjoyment of it to a degree. You start to see when things are going to do this or that, you use brain power dissecting plots and characters instead of just enjoying the story, etc… That being said, when you see something that is REALLY good, I mean REALLY REALLY GOOD, you can appreciate it in ways you never dreamed of.

Rare strip where they are at school. Usually it’s always at the paino or baseball field. Nice to see new locations.
