FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for October 16, 2024

facepalm

Maybe it was the only party she was invited to.

High School is hard that way.

They call that a conflict of interest.

Remember this day in a few years, when you’ll take your shift at the local dinner and see on TV his trophy wife parading on the new start-up billionaire arm…

Too late!

Come on, Paige! Why are you already assuming the worst?

The thing is with the ones that are called nerds in high school is that 10 years down the road they are usually called “boss”.

Looks like Paige is suffering from elementary school hangover. When one had to get a card for everyone in your class on Valentines Day.

These days Morton would be going on social media ranting about how he’s a “nice guy” and that Paige owes him a chance and how Pagie is … well all sorts of things I can’t type here.

Twenty years later Morton sold his software startup for eight figures and Paige was kicking herself.

and calling him names isn’t! :\

Paige is ambivalent about going to the party. “Am I or am I!”

Paige, go to the party, stay five minutes and then slip away.

One day he could be as rich as Bill Gates…

She’s not just picking on him to be cruel. She is really and truly offended that he’s being friendly toward her. Unbelievable.

“I don’t want to be rude”. Whoever might be dressed as Charlie Brown at the party is the one for her.

Or; get over yourself. If you relax, you might actually have fun.
