Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for May 22, 2022

Teenager skill achieved

I think you’re right, Wanda.

I hate it when TV or movies have a story or mention involving monkeys and they show chimpanzees or baboons. Kids learn wrong stuff that way, especially when it’s on a science or news show. I saw one of those last night.

Good one, Mom!

Give that girl a banana!

Man, drill her with an insult!!

You mean like Barbra Mandrell?

But a mandrill is a type of baboon.

Well, Wanda finally agreed with Hammie, of sort, on something about Zoe and her personality.

I always liked that colorful face!

What book is she reading? From the back cover, it looks like a Dr. Suess or Bearenstain Bears book, but she’s past that reading level. Unless she wanted to go back and read it just for fun.

Zoe isn’t wearing makeup yet so not a mandrill unless her face also changes colors to reds and blues. I s’pose that might be happening so I withdraw my objection.

Looks more like a vampire.

A what?

Hammie got you that time Zoe.

Baboons also have big bare butts

About right with the temper.

Now go play.

I think Hammie is right. She’s a Baboon.

She’s a girl, so she would be a womandrill.

Odd coincidence with The Phantom on the same day.

“Why don’t you suggest something?As a matter of fact,you do suggest something.To me,you suggest a baboon”.

“Wait,I’m sorry I said that.It isn’t fair to the rest of the baboons”.

Well-drawn but frightening art there!
