Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for August 29, 2022

Don’t be so uptight Mom

She’s found the real killer! Read the blocks at the top from left to right – OJAY

Hammie is Wren’s tooter.

It is a word that children sometimes hear when a diaper is changed, so it is not an unknown word to children.

Colorist!!! Wanda’s eyes look so bizarre

They censored it haha

What a stinker.

Poop is not a bad word

Troublemakers always get blamed.

Why do kids learn the “dirty” words first?!

she could have spelled it the s word way.

Hammie has a future as a teacher. That’s actually impressive.

PO​OP! Whew, now I don’t have to go… ☺

Oh give me a break. Another strip gets away with a comic about the SH!T hitting the fan, with out the censor and POOP is a bad word. Like Wanda has ever asked Darrel, Zoe or Hammie to check if wren had a bowel movementy diaper. No it was always a poopy diaper.

so instead learning to spell you’d rather give her a Participation Award…

Oh sure blame it on Hammie.

This makes Hammie a Potty Mouth !! … :)

Too cute!

Suspecting the most innocent of children. Tsk tsk tsk.

Who here is so uptight that they censor the word “poop”? The makers of “Baby Blues”? Go Comics? Who?

Colorist

Hey! Lighten up! It wasn’t censored — That was part of the joke!!

Wren knows palindromes!Promote her to sixth grade!

You know we’ve swung too far in the wrong direction when we have to censor “poop”.

“POOP” is a censored word now?!? Maybe this wokeness HAS gone too far?

As George Carlin would say, That’s a bad word! If so bad, How come the teacher left it that way till Wanda saw it? Wouldn’t the other kids see too?

UH-OH!!

At least it wasn’t something daddy said when he hit his thumb with a hammer.

Just don’t tell Hammie that it’s also a slangy synonym for “information.” If they do, he’ll be using it all over the place: “Hi, Dad, what’s the poop? Hey, Mom, hear the latest poop?” And so on.

Now that I think of it, isn’t “poop” the word that the AI overseeing the GoComics comments was recently censoring?

They’ve had that word uncensored before. Why now?

Haha! XD

Hammie may be obsessed with that word, but so are Kirkman and Scott.
