Agnes by Tony Cochran for December 08, 2023

this what happens when you spend your time eating dictionaries

I understand that these strips are reruns from 2017. Maybe in the six years following, Granny Anteater has gone to her reward and Agnes is now in “the system”.

It happens Agnes, deal.

This is how and why I learned to never say “I’m bored” when within earshot of a parent or teacher.

Hoist on yer own petard, are Ye Agnes?

That is how I usually play poker, FOLD!

Squashed like a bug

Your diatribe has backfired, Agnes.

It’s a learning experience. You might have a bored kid of your own some day.

Just do it.

Granma always has Agnes foold towels so that must mean Grandma folds the regular clothing?

She should be more concerned about being “boxed in” by the laundry basket full of towels. I’m skeptical that our less-than-buff Agnes has the body strength to get out of this on her own.
