Frazz by Jef Mallett for May 10, 2016

That would explain Mr. Spaetzle’s hair.

What I want to know is who did the tablet belong to. Someone had to be taking names.

Mr. Spaetzle needs to use his noodle. He can be a real dummkopf!

If you don’t always understand kid motivation, you’re not a dummkopf, you’re just the average adult.

They weren’t acting.

thank you Jeff, I hadn’t made that connection

I feel like an idiot…. but I have absolutely no clue how to interpret/understand this. Any explanation would be appreciated. All I can figure out is that some kid is kicking another one in the rear end. At the end the kid says to the effect that he is acting “his age”. But beyond those obvious things…. I sure as hell do not understand anything else, nor see “humor” here. Please explain this to me if you can.

Did he actually hurt his leg with the kick?

Thank you everyone for the explanations! I still am not really getting the humor, but at least I think I understand what is happening and why.
