This is part of why teens dislike “joining the family” as their parents put it. No need to yell too loud, Elly, just tell him to clean it up and expect him to do it. Or not! It is his room to live in.
I would have been very disappointed if Bets had given up so easily. It wasn’t fair of her to blame Gunther for Les’s lies, just because they live together (although I don’t blame her for being cautious! It’s a man’s world, a girl’s gotta be safe!). She seems sweet and geeky, hopefully this works out!
Yes! I was almost named Emma, which is a horribly common name, but I would have preferred it – my name has an “r” in it, and I had a speech impediment growing up. I couldn’t pronounce my "r"s until I was about 9, and I still struggle sometimes! That made introducing myself embarrassing and miserable, since no one could ever understand my name!
I love B.D.’s smile in the final panel. He loves Boopsie, even if she is cray-cray, and he loves his little daughter!
