Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 29, 2021

Hynotized…maybe the Jewish name for it, popularized by Hy Rabinowitz.

Gil…. Clueless as usual

In all reality , Boyd becomes the most popular guy school as word of his hypnotic powers spreads. Rumors fly,Boyd is credited with raising ACT scores 10 points, getting losers dates with popular girls and even getting the lunchroom to serve better food . So when does Kia make an appointment to be hypnotized by Boyd, inquiring minds want to know !

What’s the harm? What’s the THEME? Good facial expressions in P3, as well as P1.

Hypnosis will not enable you to flap your arms and fly. It will not make you fall in love with your enemy. It will not make you assassinate the President. And it won’t get you a B on the algebra test. It can help if you’re anxious about the test, but it doesn’t make you smarter.

P1 as the students who have started on their cafeteria lunches turn purple, the ants march in columns from the upper right to get their fair share

P2 Translation for, “Fortunately, everyone knows he’s Boyd Spiller”: “Everyone knows Guts Spiller is a j@ckass tool.”

P3 Errr….no P3? What in the wide world of sports is going on here?

P3.5 (if there was a P3 today) “Don’t whine to me, get your nose in the book, I’m not a miracle worker, I just fix chokers on the the football field, not in the classroom.”

What I said last week bears repeating. Only three should ever be referred to as Dude. Dean Martin, Jeff Bridges and Mick Foley.

I’ve been away for a couple of weeks, but I’m really hoping someone made an analogy to the winning powers of the magical peacock.

Why is this making me sleeeeeepy, verrrrryyy sleeeeeepy?

Is that Chance Macy who needs the B?

Check out those fork grips in p1, especially at the right side of the panel. It’s like watching chimps eat.

Since when does a “B” make you ineligible for varsity? In my day, all you needed was a C- average.

(Also, I commented a couple of days ago about hypnosis prep for the SATs. Anyone care to guess where we’re going with this?)

So crack a book!!!

Sounds like we need to hypno the math teacher.

not if the grading period is not over. That may be the last test of the grading period

Someone needs to hypnotize Rubin into writing a relevant story.

P1: What’s with Thing holding the fork to the far right of the panel? Looks like Thing is ready to stab someone with it.

I will not yell today. I will not yell today. I will not yell today. I will not yell today.

DAMMIT, WHY IS THIS GETTING STUPIDER BY THE DAY? ARE THE WRITERS JUST TRYING TO PISS ME OFF AND GIVE ME A BRAIN ANEURYSM? Serenity now, serenity now!

And speaking of serenity, it may help me achieve serenity if you read and like Mopped Up Thorp.
