FoxTrot by Bill Amend for January 01, 2012
Transcript:
Roger: Good morning Happy New Year! Jason: Oh, please. Spare me your earth-centric time lables! Roger: Huh? Jason: Just because on earth "year" has 365 "days," doesn't mean the rest of the universe has to dance to your celebrations. Maybe you should acknowledge the planet Mercury and say "Happy New Year" every few earth months! Or be nice to Jupiterians and only say it every twelfth earth year! Personally, I'm in solidarity with Pluto. I won't acknowledge a year has passed until your precious earth calendar reads 2259. Roger: You REALLY don't want to turn 11, do you?! Jason: That's when Peter says he started liking girls! Do you blame me?!

Sadly Jason is destined to never like girls. Fox Trot characters don’t age.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I never went through the “girls are icky” stage. When I was growing up, most of the other neighborhood kids my age were girls. If I avoided them, I wouldn’t have had any friends at all.

When I first met Tink (at age 5), it was every reason why I liked girls!

Frankly, the boys I knew growing up didn’t start fancying girls until high school, and yet no boy EVER asked me on a date when I was in high school. Sighs

Also, I don’t care what those jerks at NASA say. Pluto IS a planet and so there!

365.256, actually – depending on how you measure it. A Gregorian calendar year is 365 or 366 days. Wait until you get into Hebrew calendar years. :)

The word “Jupiterians” just sounds so cool.

But that would be a pretty good excuse to celebrate!

I feel you, Jason. I don’t want to turn thirteen and become a teenager, so I’m calling everyone under 18 a child because they aren’t legal adults yet.

Jason, try this for size: In Korea, babies are considered to be one year old at birth, so in Korea, you’re already 11!
