Hey school administrator guy: When the ugly town idiots are all riled up, you know what to do? Just tell ‘em it’s not the teachers’ fault. Tell ‘em someone else much scarier is to blame, like the one-eyed underwater ghost of Osama Bin Laden, or Justin Bieber. What’s the worst that could happen then?
Exactly. No down side.

The teachers in Milford do have a lot to legitimately complain about:
1. Only one chair in the teachers’ lounge.
2. Having to work with Gil.
3. Odd rule requiring them to all use personalized mugs.
4. No non-ugliness prerequisite.
5. Having to work with Gil.
6. Being forced to listen to Freckles’ stupid Detroit alarm clock story for the 3,000th time.
7. Annual bonfire torches school to the ground every damn September.
8. Having to work well into July each year. With Gil.
No wonder eight Milford teachers over the past three years have taken the Bieber route, going down in a blaze of glorious bullets. (Not to mention the two Thorp children who did the same thing.)
Both mugs say “Gil,” but why is the human one expressing what appears to be empathy? Or is he upset that Shaw’s not around to Irish up his coffee?
Moving on to the next item…

Another shout out to one of Rubin’s Detroit friends, who must be in a witness protection program since her name isn’t mentioned.

5/24 panel 2: LOL at fat lady complaining about fat paychecks.
Milford School Board’s new motto: “We use Chicago font, but at least we’re not Detroit!” Maybe they could get Eminem to shoot an ad for them.

When is the last time Gil appeared in the strip but didn’t have any lines? Bonk! HRONK!

This will all work out. Notice that in 5/24 panel 3, Jean-Luc Piccard has joined the school board. He won’t allow things to get out of hand or listen to the yelling yokels for very long– you’ve got to THINK to solve problems!

Gil has long since caring as the booze finally kicked in.
Damn, dem’s some ugly townsfolk. I expected them to charge the stage with pitchforks and torches.

I’ve been trying to figure out faculty member ponytail’s name on her mug. Is it Alpha, Aria, Anna or Anubis?
Cut to the chase. We’re here for a mediocre comic strip. All 23 of us.

Dood, it’s “Ana,” as in Ng.

Gil, for once, is at a loss for words. “Uhm, er, hey, you shoulda seen Tolan get shelled by Valley Tech the other day…”

All the mugs say Gil. That’s what Gil gave everyone for Christmas last year, Gil coffee mugs and sandwich flasks.

Those that can’t do, teach.
Those that can’t teach, teach gym.
Funniest video I’ve seen in a long time……..
