    You do seem to know too much, Ruthie, but this time I guess your ma’s words flew right over your cute little head.

    It means l’il Ruthie can fake it really well without knowing all those English Language rules.

    Today’s strip is a twist on the old Homework Excuse.

    Does she really? It’s common for comics to have kids talking like adults (or at least older kids); next to them, Ruthie sounds downright primitive. One person at a Q&A even asked Rick Detorie whether Ruthie was autistic or hard of hearing.

    That’s her MIDDLE name, her first name is “New England.”
