Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for December 22, 2023

Hope Jami likes sushi!

Christmas in Lesbovania

Don’t eat the silverware, Jami. For fork’s sake.

Jami Has Two Mommies

Awww…. Gil’s back to calling her ‘Peanut’

Panel 4 seems to be from a different conversation. Tried to tell who what? And, for that matter, which one of them is speaking?

P 3.5 (Keri): “…. I was just reading my gocomics stuff… I can’t believe how stupid Crankshaft is lately…”

So…how is the author going to un-ring this bell?

You think if Fang was still around he’d snuggle up to Ericka? Her cankles would be gnawed on drumsticks.

In all reality, I know u brats miss your Mom but she’s not coming back ! Okay Dad but can we call Henry and see if he can bring her back ?

So wait… you went through months of relationship drama, a separation and divorce, and you what – just forgot to tell the kids that their entire lives and living situations were being thrown into uncertainty and upheaval? Let’s see, that’s either (a) a well-written commentary on parenting failures of post-Covid society, or (b) another bit of “I have no idea how to construct a decent narrative while writing a serial.” I know my vote.

Eat your grub clusters before they get damp.

And then there was the 10-second commercial introducing us to the hockey team.

Thanks for the big hand today, Whiggy. Now if you can only get Father of the Year Gil to enforce the “no phones at the dinner table” rule.

P2: Is that a cup of coffee or some oil for the Gilbot-9000?

All we can hope for is a “Dallas” story line

P 2.5 (Jami): “…can I have her TV?…”

If Jami hasn’t figured out that Mom isn’t living there anymore, and hasn’t for months, what is he thinking about the Meemaw situation?

Tell who what?

Today is misdirected dialog. Tomorrow………?

call the comics police two days straight of jami !!!!!

so i guess with mom gone you will be making a lot of hamburger helper gilpa

P3- “Oh? Sorry, daddy. I was just texting mom and Ericka. This is so much fun having two moms, I think I’ll add a couple more boyfriends. Or maybe five or six more to really have some fun.”

jami suggests it would be fun to visit to visit luann and her family at that lodge there staying at for xmas

henry plans to show coach kim washing more dishes next year his most popular strip this year

In P4, is Jami having a conversation with his imaginary friend? Or is he telling Keri that he tried to get Pedro to call her?

Man, that Jami is sharp as a tack. His parents had the Big D how long ago ago—-not surprisingly ,the exact date is murky -- and he figured out “Mom doesn’t live here anymore” all by himself ???

Oh come on. Why is the writer trying to make me look like a moron?

No wonder Jami isn’t too thrilled with eating dinner. Look at that túrd on his fork in P3. And speaking of túrds, Mopped Up Thorp occasionally lays a túrd, but today is not one of those days.

P2- ohh yeah. Count Chocula, err Thorpula, primes the kids some weekends are with Mimi and the wentch. The Gilfather gettin’ nice. But who with?

Gil feeds them amaaaazing sloppy joes the night before they go to Mimi’s.
