Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for July 27, 2024

P1- These NERDS aren’t rocket scientists. But they are staying in a Holiday Inn Express.

P2- You really think Gil would pay for two rooms?

P3- Gil: Well Peanut. I never had fun until I got busy with Beth.

“We never do anything fun anymore.”“Geez kid, you just got back from your mother’s rv trip last week.”

Well golly, Peanut. Seems like you had plenty of fun with Pedro.

Remind me again who it was that left the group to do her own thing?

What a whiny little b!tch. I thought Comic-Con was fun in her peanut sized mind.

Daddy issues, peanut?

With a softball lob like this, I fear responding.

She was “busy” with Pedro and Gil didn’t complain.

P 4 (Gil thought bubble): “… right after I drop your unappreciative a$$ back with Mimi …”

I just noticed that Gil was too cheap to spring for a bigger room or even another room. Little Martinez on the floor must be thinking about emulating his big brother.

What did they do for fun before?

Be honest peanut, how much time were you bothering to spend with daddy before Beth rolled into town?

P4 “Did I mention that I’m taking you kids on a container ship tour at the port of San Diego tomorrow?”

In all reality, Daddy’s doing the Wild Thing with Beth any chance we get. Sorry Peanut, but Daddy’s worn out. Good Night !

She’s the one who took off on her own…

I’m amazed at all the “private” conversations Gil has with other people nearby. In the plane, in the hotel room,……

P 4 (Gil): “… I’ll ditch Jami and Junior at the nearest fire station tomorrow…”

gil tells keri i get paid i mean steal a lot of money why would i hang out with you

its tough being a sporting director with no ambition

dad take some sleeping stuff and pass out i wanna get down with the guy in the dragon costume

Way to splurge, Gil. You can afford your own plane, you can afford two more beds. And speaking of afford, you can’t afford to miss today’s Mopped Up Thorp.
