Frazz by Jef Mallett for January 16, 2021

Heck, all the gyms around here have floor to ceiling windows, and the treadmills are easily visible from out in front.

Kids ARE very self-centered, which allows them to enjoy others’ pain… which may be why “practical” jokes often seem so childish. And why those YouTubes of “epic fails” are so popular while being unwatchable for me.

I’ve been a long-time fan, and thought I’d let you know I wrote a poem about you and Frazz at http://jumblehints.blogspot.com/2021/01/jan-16-2021.html?showComment=1610793570498#c6173476928342902734 .

So, neither Mallett nor Frazz have seen the inside of a gym/health club recently.

I know Mallet has this physical-fitness ego that looks down on all who are not Gym rats, but I have never seen anyone fall off a treadmill in my life.

I’ve kept my membership, but haven’t been since March. I miss it.

Many of the clubs have big windows to show off their equipment Just stay there and enjoy (I used to bike and wave with a big smile at those on bikes staring mindlessly outside).

I generally enjoy Frazz and what I thought was a caring relationship with the students. Why, then, if he cares, does he risk exposing them to COVID. Frazz is a comic strip with one foot in reality. As long as it wants the comic universe it exists in devoid of the virus, it doesn’t have to worry about things like masks and social distancing. But having moved into our COVID universe, the characters need to be masked. Like real kids and adults.

Do gyms even allow memberships for kids?

Remember, folks. It’s not that Caulfield is mean spirited, its just that he’s far smarter than anyone else.

Allegedly.

Hey! A funny one here.

Oh my God, this one is as unfunny as I’ve heard it is. A dense cloud of SMUG has just rolled in!

Careful, schadenfreude really isn’t that becoming …
