Alice: The bathroom at Blisshaven scares me. Mom: Why? Alice: There are some pipes in the corner with spiderwebs on them. Petey: I remember that! And there's a stain in the sink shaped like a monkey. Alice: No, I like the monkey stain, but I hate the spider pipes.

I swear, spiders will walk across broken glass just to bite me.

Madeline in panel 3 looks rather non-plussed by her very different but equally special children. Monkeys vs. spiders: who loves whom?

Monkey Stain & The Spider Pipes would be a good name for a band. Dibs!

The bathroom may be unisex, like in some Starbuckses. (That is the plural of “Starbucks,” isn’t it?) What I’m wondering about is the little spinoff pointing toward Madeline from the stem of Alice’s speech balloon. Is Madeline saying the same thing, is it a drawo, or what?

My school had a crying ghost in the bathroom.

It’s not the spiderwebs or the spiders amongst the pipes that should bother Alice – or anyone else. It’s the ones lurking under the toilet seat…

Yes, the spiders are indeed more frightened of Alice than she is of them. However, the pipes are absolutely fearless. Never trust a pipe.

I love how brother and sister are having this bonding moment!

So the Blisshaven custodial staff is similar to that in a public school?

@ doublejake: You mean like this one?
Last Rose Of Summer Premium Member almost 11 years ago
Uh… Reynard61, if you post pics, don’t post and bigger than 350×350. It is hard on the computers.

@ 2old, but not really!: I do usually try to post a link to the smallest image that I can find, but unfortunately I was unable to find a smaller image and the site wouldn’t let me link to it for some reason.
