Kevin: Did you see what the weird new kid had for a snack - Alice: HEY! She's not the weird new kid! She's my new best friend! She has a name. It's SOAPIE. Girl: SOFIE.
I had a spinster Aunt Sofia. She’d put weird ingredients in things, like peanut butter in apple pie. It was great family fun at Thanksgiving drawing straws to see who would cheerfully eat a piece.
To give Alish the benepit of the doubt, maybe Shopie has a shfeech imfediment. Until I was pive or shiksh, my S’s and my SH’s were fretty much indishtinguissable. (I took shfessial clashes, and there’s no trashe of a froblem lept.)
Mish Blish sould have Shopie sheen by a froppeshional Shfeech Therafisht. As shoon as foshible!

Sofie’s head is flat. That is weird.

Close enough….

Sofie’s not making it any easier on them, is she? I’m guessing she won’t be Alice’s new best friend for a lot longer.

I don’t know–she kind of looks like she belongs in the Addams family….

Is Alice ready for a friend?

Poor Alice! Just when she thought it was safe to open up! ^_^

Sofie has to stand her ground, or she’ll get that nickname whether she deserves it or not.

That’s right, pibfan. Good for her - take no flak!

Sorry, my new best friend Sofa.

Soapie, Sophie, you say potato I say potahto, potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto…who cares?
Yes, that flat head *is* weird…she’s a little ‘postal’ too..
fritzoid Premium Member over 14 years ago
Sofie’s no softie. If she’s a bit “postal”, she’s got cause; how’d YOU like to be the “weird new kid” for weeks and weeks?
And her head’s no flatter than Kevin’s…

Forgetting your BFF’s name speaks volumes, Alice.

Alice - check that wax buildup in your ears! Wonder what SOFIE thinks about being Alice’s “new best friend”!

Yes Alice, this one’s gonna be trouble.

I’m betting Sophie is Miss Biss’s niece.

^Until we see her hair in a bun, I’m withholding judgment.

The use of light and dark, space and clutter in the hands of Richard Thompson is just amazing. And he makes me larf my head off.
