Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for June 12, 2023

The ball was IN the line?!? COME ON!!

P2: Where two of the boys are headed.

P2: Sgt. Schultz calls for his kommandant.

“This is not good. If the vape sales get shut down, we wont have any athletic budget at all!”

Coginchaug? Is that near Hufflepuff or Slytherin?

Ask not for whom the bell tolls…

P1 RICOLA!!!! (Too easy, the shot was there, so I took it). Big hands, big mouth, and Cami spouting gibberish. Even Dotty Dubbs, a relative newcomer to the game, and her unidentified teammate are thinking, WTF.

P2 CLINK? No, it will be more like Valley Modified for ToBe and Rod, but it’s close enough for hand grenades.

P3 Not being skilled at texting, Gil inadvertently sends Emmett and Cami a picture of his junk. The instant between comprehending and reacting to the image is perfectly preserved by Whigham.

P4 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

Gil was in his office when Marty visited. Assuming he immediately texted, while are the girls playing a game while school is in session? Or why was Gil in his office and not at practice or game if girls were playing after school?So many questions, so few answers from this strip since the changeover.

P4- 43 feet approximately. Can Keri tell if Dorothy smells prettier today? P3 literally sets up Kool Aid man to crash thru P4. Oh yeah!

Unlike the ball, Tobe and Rod were out of line

Typical Gil…not at game…won’t tell them in person….sends a text during a game, probably from a golf cart somewhere…

P3 “Yeah, this is not good” sums it up nicely.

The softball team goes on a losing streak after finding out about losing 2 players on the baseball team. Not good,

P-1: Coach Cami believes the play is on sides.

P-2: Both Coaches are stunned; Gil knows how to text. Gil can text from a flip phone!? It’s the fifth sign of the Apocalypse!!!

P-3: Time to sell our Vape stock short!!!

No, it’s near Passamaquaddie

“Heh” indeed. And I use a flip phone too.

Tomorrow, the parents of the suspended players, and their lawyers, descend on Pearl’s office to demand why Keri Thorp, who has assaulted a fellow classmate and been in a fight on school property /at a school function, and only received a detention, was not disciplined in an equal manner. Next stop is Moon’s studio if she isn’t handed the same level of discipline, effective immediately.

Hmm, is P2 a callout to Hogan’s Heroes? And speaking of callouts, I’m calling out anyone who’s not reading Mopped Up Thorp.

Love to hear Marty try to pronounce that name…

Coginchaug Regional High School is a public high school located in Durham, Connecticut and is named after the Coginchaug River.
