Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for December 10, 1993
Transcript:
Doolittle: Your art is at a promising stage of development, Rose! Rose: Why, thank you, Doo! Doolittle: A great artist once said, "the genius within cannot emerge until we risk revealing the idiot." Clem: Do you think she got it? Doolittle: I'm not sure... don't high-five me until we're out of sight.
I understand that Clem & Co. were created to balance the sweetness of the strip, but still…people who are unkind for the purpose of being unkind are simply jerks. (There are better words, but there might be Pasquales reading this.)
