Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for December 23, 2023

Why is Gil laughing?

Maybe he’ll be one of three spirits visiting her on Christmas Eve.

Gil gets his baseball bat…“Over?? OVER!! it’s not over until WE say it is!”

Love Gil’s half-face in panel 3.

Gil’s fireplace puts the annual Milford bonfire to shame. He’s got a whole forest burning in there

Peanut’s roasting by an open fire.

… for his own well-being, no doubt.

If it ain’t the ridiculous script-writing it’s the crappy illustrations. Like Roseanne Roseannadana said " It’s always sumthin’ ".

P3: Gil:“He changed his name to Casper?”

Geez………. what’s the white goop pouring out of her eyes? And if he ghosted her, breaking up with him is redundant…. and unnecessary. HB should stay away from using slang he doesn’t understand.

Hmmmm…if he was ghosting you I think the break-up train had already left the station, Keri.

P4 – Clueless Gil: “So you’re saying he’s hanging out with Boo Radley? I don’t get it.” And speaking of not getting it, if you don’t get today’s Mopped Up Thorp, maybe you should be reading something simpler like Family Circus.

In honor of the big holiday, Happy Festivus to all! And now it’s time for the airing of grievances. Oh, wait, that’s nonstop here already. Okay, on to the Feats of Strength. My money is on Gilbot-9000 crushing the competition. And I mean literally crushing the competition.

That ain’t the only thing he did to you, Peanut.

Pfff- This happened to Gil and he’s doing fine… Although he seems a little more robotic these days.

the elf on the shelf told santa what jami has been doing in milford after dark so hes getting two oven mitts for christmas

cry bay bay cry BOOOOOOOOO

now keri can date hockey sensation quentin doolittle

you dont smell pretty keri so you got ghosted whatever that means

P4 “It’s probably better than if he “melvined” you, Keri.”

Cry me a river

Another big soles day for Whigs!

I wish Keri would ghost this strip

Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Meanwhile, back at the Justice League…….

As Pedro is manscaping for his next date, Boon Schoenstein asks who he’s going out with. Pedro informs Boon she has a pair of Major League yabos. Annddd it’s not Marlene Desford.

Headed out on vacation…merry Christmas and HRAAAKy new year to all of Snark Nation!

“No he didn’t, sweetheart. I broke his thumbs, He can’t text.”

P4- (Gil): “I know, but I thought we took care of that at the hospital.”

P4 (alternate): “Your IUD ghosted you, maybe you should break up with it, Keri.”

If you break up with someone who ghosted you by text in the forest does it mean he reads it??

Fun fact! “Pedro” spelled backwards is “Ordep”!

P 2.5 (Gil): “…. But that kid is a doosh loser, so just let him know that you’re happy that you aborted his kid…”

Why, I ought ta! Wait, don’t cry…he just watched the chick flick “Ghost”. Merry Christmas, Peanut. …and to all the bloggers out there!

That fireplace could handle a whole tree! Like the ones used to heat a medieval castle.

Monday’s greeting may be from Scottsdale!

P3 Gilbot-9000 thought bubble. “Must. Snap. Your. Neck. Like. A. Peanut. Shell. Put. You. Out. Of. Your. Misery. Trust. Me. It. Will. Be. Painless. Peanut.”

Then. Stuff. Into. Freezer. With. Meemaw.

Gil: “… so let’s call him ‘Casper’…hahahaaaaa…..”

How many of the faces seen in the December 08 HAHUKKAH strip will be in the CHRISTMAS strip? I’m guessing all except Kaz.
