Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for December 13, 2022

Masters in the art of finishing cleaning just before the car pulls into the driveway. I too am a master

Of course you were always in charge. How else could they pin all the blame on you?

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was all some big plan hatched up to mess with Gene

This is the longest Thanksgiving arc ever

Gene, you got poor judgement.

“Cleaning up messes and fixing the problem are not the same thing. We’re still eating pizza for dinner.”

You have to leave just enough of a mess to allay suspicions.

Teach me, Kyle.

In the meantime, Gene can go for the takeout.

Kyle using the royal We.

Do I REALLY want to see the next three days’ worth of cleaning up?!?

“Then our mother came in

And she said to us two,

“Did you have any fun?

Tell me. What did you do?”

And Sally and I did not

know what to say.

Should we tell her

The things that went on

there that day?

Well… what would YOU do

If your mother asked you?"

—T. S. Geisel (R.I.P.)

Kyle is actually kind of cool

Kevin and I, not me and Kevin. You always put yourself at the end to be grammatically correct.

And yet, Mom still somehow found out and ground them anyway!
