Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 23, 2024

P1 “Just an error.” That’s what Pedro said.

P2 Call Gil. JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA! Call Gil, what? Go ahead Cami, just kick her @ss. You know you wanna.

P3 Yas, Keri, labels are convenient – until they’re not.

Hey Keri, in all reality, I have a label maker you can borrow!

Exhale? What, you too good to sigh like everybody else???

Call Gil? Hahaaaaaa…. Good one Toe! You sure know how to scare kids into performing better. Stick to nursery rhymes, why dontcha’

They (and us) don’t really like Tobe

Shouldn’t it be “they told me they loved me”? Or would that be misgendering? Aaah, too confusing for an old man. Hey- “loved”, it’s past tense Keri, they’re so over you

Yeah, let’s focus on that in the middle of a game. (Insert eye roll here)

P2: It’s not of any value. Gil’s about as involved in Keri’s life as he is with his teams.

For ToBe there are so many labels and so little time.

It’s too bad HB has to include this stupid softball game, it’s ruining the story line.

Cami is such a dork. Every time she wants to “get tough”, she threatens to squeal to Gil. Way to handle it, Toe. Gil is more of a pu$$Y than Tobe is.

camel should slap keri in the face if she was that upset to play she could have put eliza in

gil is not gonna ansewer the phone hes out shagging uh flyballs of course

we havent seen inma in awhile maybe she should hang out with luann

… and Tobe was not telling Rod the entire story two days ago. Sez he loves her by text? He used to be a girl. He should know that won’t fly with any girl, especially Peanut.

My grandkids all play sports. Their backpacks are under or near the bench. I often get texts from them. Requests for a drink, snack, handwarmer, Chapstick etc.. This happens on all levels, from youth sports to varsity.

P1- “Uh, Coach? I don’t speak Spanish.”

P2- “Don’t make me call Gil.”………“My dad knows Spanish?”

Run laps until your heart figures it out.

“Oh, by the way, you were supposed to be batting just now, but the umpire just called you out for delaying the game so long.” And speaking of delaying, I hope you’re not delaying reading today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Is Peanut shell-shocked?

RW need to be drug-tested !!!!!! In P1 the background is cinderblocks. In P2 we have a chain-link fence, with the ever-present hole in it. And where is the rest of the team ????
