   Well, whether the goings-on of Agnes’ nose are plural or individual, tandem or solo, one-off or repetitive,
   you have to admit,,,
   it IS a singular nose.
   
   Always.
   
   A very singular nose.

   One day the landscape is bare, the next day it’s covered in snow.
   This strip must take place in the same setting as Thomas Mann’s novel “The Magic Mountain”.

   Why is it a sniff, and not a sniffle? That’s still singular.

   A sniffle is a mini-sniff, defined by the volume of air that one (cannot) inhale. A sniff is more normally sized, characterized by a larger volume of absent air. It’s all in the manual.

    It is always possible the reports of the life and times of Agnes The Great are not strictly chronological, hence we see her in the classroom one instant and before the principal the next.
    -
    Let us rejoice that career prospects just throw themselves in front of her. Perhaps someday, our societal benefits will depend on the regulations she writes with such precision.

    Just like Agnes, our future is rosy.
