    Is the “joke” that they’re giving commands to an “Alexa” device or that she’s really strong? Either way, hilarious.

    And it’s a new story finally! Starting out strong as always with kids ridiculing a girl because she has the same name as a voice activated household device. Oh boy, good stuff.

    As far as the odds from yesterday, three are paying off:

    “6-1: A new kid is thinking about something, or talking with other kids. This kid will be the focus for the winter lameness.” Alexa is not talking or thinking anything, but this is pretty close.

    “2-1: One of my spotless, sparkling floors are featured.” Some of my best work, if I do say so myself.

    “10-1: Mr Reality gets hit by a car.” I probably should have said, “Spoiler alert!” before you read MUT.

    And speaking of an alert, I’m alerting you to the fact that today’s Mopped Up Thorp is online.

    Mimi hasn’t had an Amazon since, well, Menzie. Backslaps and guffaws in P3. All we need now is a budding romance with Max Bacon’s cousin Harry Sausage.

    P1, Which she can taste throughout the day with her flavor saver mustache.

    P2, Is this the new Menzie?

    P3, Why does the dude closest to us have a pencil stuck to the back of his Spider Man costume?

    Last story ends with Charlie and Chance getting pizza, and Chet with egg on his face. New story begins with someone about to get punched in the mouth.

    What? No comment about the relative positions of the two guys in the front of the P3 line? Alexa, Open a New Thread …

    There’s a young girl on my bus named Alexa, and I asked her “When your parents yell at you, do the lights go on and off?”

    Alexa’s new boyfriend (a transfer from Central City) shanks the offender before he can make into the classroom. Gangbangers in the house!

    The Amazon Echo came out five years ago. There’s no mention of Alexa (the student) being a recent transfer. It’s barely possible that someone would be making an “Alexa – open the door” joke for five years. It’s definitely not possible that someone else would still find it funny.

    P1 and P2- Nothing says Milford foxy lady like pencil thin moustache and Milford Monk. Compliments of Valley Cut & Curl.
