Transcript:
Gracie: I told Dad I want to be a Cytotechnologist when I grow up. Baldo: What'd he say? Gracie: He's withholding judgment... Gracie: Until he looks it up.
judgement? what freaking judgement?…….this kid is so beyond you , dear old dad, that all you should do is provide her with room and board and stay out of her way
“(What happened to Gracie wanting to be a self-doing-own-taxes accountant/doctor?)”
She could still be a CPA (Cytotechnological Public Accountant).
Besides, she’s a kid. She’s wanted to be an astronaut, President (of Mars, no less, in which case her astronaut training would come in handy), a teacher, a doctor, and the other day an accountant. Give her a different hat tomorrow, and she’ll decide she wants to be a Lion Tamer.
Being a cytotechnologist, I know how obscure my profession is. I’d love to know how the creators of Baldo came to use it. It was alot of fun to run across it in the comics!

Is it just me or is that a really gross-looking doll? I mean even grosser than “Barbie” or even “Bratz” dolls usually look.

What link? You mean the jump from accountant to Lion Tamer? It’s the “Vocational Guidance Counsellor Sketch.”
Here’s a link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMOmB1q8W4Y
PS, TimeTraveler, I just rewatched the sketch myself, and it’s clear that you WERE responding as one who knows. My deepest apologies…
