The rubber trouser snake makes Andrew’s ear explode AGAIN (then again everything makes his ear explode, so no big deal.) However will he make Shrumbo look stupid? Well really, he doesn’t need to do anything. But I’m hopeful Andrew’s idea of a prank doesn’t come from 1953, like all of Dumpo’s do. I’m keeping my fingers crossed he’s about to pour a bucket of rabid* scorpions infected with swine flu** onto Shum-Dumbo’s head.
*Yep, scorpions can be rabid. If you don’t believe me, I’ll update Wikipedia to prove it.
**Remember when we were all going to die of swine flu? Ah, the memories.

Andrew’s going to use the ol’ “bucket of water over a door” trick. But it’s going to fall on Gil when he walks in the room instead. Hilarious!

…and then it will be on youtube and then everybody will bring Gil umbrellas. Yuk Yuk Yuk.

I hope it falls on Kaz and he beats the crap out of them. Hilarity ensues!

No, Andrew’s going to “Take Shep to the Bucket”, for real this time.

I suppose we can hope that bucket is full of cow droppings, and Andrew is planning on implementing the Flaming Bag o’ Poo. Have your camera-phones ready, gents!

I’m ALWAYS wrong when I predict where Nealie’s going next yet I keep doing it. I predict since the rest of team ain’t down with the Gregory smart mouth that they’re in cahoots and the prank will bite Andy in the derriere somehow.
And the 1st 2 panels (5/28): If that isn’t a total waste of ink! The double y chromosomed team wins one and loses one. Bfd. I mean there’s so many little sub plots why not instead have The Moon-ster in some farcical funfest? Oh, maybe have him de-pantsed during the 7th inning stretch of the New Thayer game or something…. to show him in women’s underthings etc…

Snakes are in the what now?

#4 in the real world yy chromosomal abnormality is biologically impossible (human female eggs always have an x chromosome and sex of baby is determined by whether the sperm carries x or y chromosome)–but realizing we are in Milford and not in the real world, I guess anything is possible !
I’d guess the point of the girls team one win (with the chaste non-alcohol consuming Molly pitching) and one loss (with party girl Cassie Corman on the hill) is just another lesson that nothing good can become of those who drink, sleep around and hang with Shrimp Trumbo–but if you hang with Bill Hawkins the sky is the limit!

Sorry–meant to refer to #5

Well, it looks like we’re gonna have a douche-off with Andrew (formerly known as CurleyHorse) Gregory and Shemp Thumbo. I only wish that bucket’s full of battery acid.
I think #1′s right about Gil being on the receiving end of that bucket.

Is that pigs blood in the bucket? Is this a ripoff of the movie “Carrie”?
Comment by Gil's Proctologist — May 28, 2009 @ 11:03 am
Bucket full o’ shit! It’s shitty!

Hopefully that bucket is full of pigs blood, and then whomever it ends up falling on (Shemp, Gil, or some other hapless Milfordian) will suddenly develop telekenesis and get very angry. Of course, if that were to happen to Gil, he’d probably just use it to bring him drinks from the PUB.

I’ll take your word for it about the scorpions. But let me tell you, 1953 was a banner year for practical jokes. Only 1892 came close.

Absolutely right, 13, about 1892 as a banner year for practical jokes– when do you think the Whoopee Cushion (TM) was invented?
Special this week on cigarette loads!

Today’s strip reveals that CurleyHorse stole his prank from Harlem Globetrotter Curly Neal, right down to missing his “intended” target…
