Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 10, 2022

Calling daughter “Princess” reminds me of Jim Anderson (Robert Young) calling teen daughter Betty “Princess” on “Father Knows Best”. Where’s younger daughter “Kitten”?

Reminded me of Ted Danson in “Something About Amelia”. Really Creepy.

“Keri, are you woke yet?”

Shooter drill PTSD nightmares? Conflicted feelings about VT and Pedro vs. Milford and daddy? Morning sickness?

Oh my God ,Call 911 ! In all reality , our Princess has OD ed

“And history aint changed, ‘cause the banners, they’re all flown in the last war.”

“v.s.”?

So his beef isn’t really with Thorp, it’s with the Milford Star? And after 35 years, after being Pac-12 basketball MVP (from which one would likely play pro ball) and the news coverage it generates, he’s STILL nursing an all-important invented grudge? Psychiatrists will have a field day.

“Ready for school?” She’s still in her friggin’ PJ’s. Gil! And judging by the way she’s clutching her stomach, she’s either preggers or being visited by a “friend.”

Gil reverts back to GilPa today asking a question and getting an obvious visual answer

Meanwhile, Jami is imaginary sword fighting in his room, protecting Tarna and the Locnar.

She’s ready for school if she’s planning to attend in her pajamas. Her hair always looks unkempt, so no problem there.

Great….more Keri

Gil already forgot the pronouns from earlier this year. “Royalty” would correct rather than “Princess”. Nonetheless, Gil’s very surprised to see that the football team has an upcoming game.

They have played at least 3 football games since the active shooter drill and Keri is still having a hard time. Maybe she should have seen a councilor by now. What about the volleyball team?

senor gil thorp great valley tech coach not so much

How can he call her “princess”? I thought she was confused about her gender?

Judging from yesterday’s strip, Kari must be trapped in a time warp from 1987.

How old is Gil supposed to be? It’s one thing for a former student to show up with a 15-year-old son, but for him to have been coaching for 35 years? He’s a little old to have such young children.

Has she been laying in bed for a week? Still she’ll shocked by the drill?

Yes, the history books will one day recall the exploits of a hairy high school football coach, right after telling the tales of the great World Wars, mankind’s space exploration, the greatest inventions of all time…

And speaking of all time, the greatest all time satire strip has just published today’s episode. No, I’m not talking about Marmaduke, it’s Mopped Up Thorp!

P1- Gil still looking for HIS quote.

P2- Gil hops in his car to go check on Meemaw.

P3- Yeah, Dad! I’ll be there in 45 minutes.
