Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for June 20, 2013

I guess we won’t be seeing a “Summer Fantasy” until after Labor Day…(sigh)

she’s like IT IS ?

An alternative re-run:http://www.gocomics.com/doonesbury/1976/11/04The ‘courtship’ continues.Enjoy

Sigh. " Summer reruns"? What happenedto Alex? We left her on the ground, at graduation.

I remember this particular strip very well…it’s hilarious that Joanie’s first thought upon pondering Leo’s possible parentage is to entertain the possibility that all candidates might take an interest.

This puts him one up on Beavis and Butt – Head; their dads were only ROADIES for Motley Crue!

Mama Mia !

Ah yes, the sex and drugs culture of the sixties that was going to change the world . And look what a pretty world they made.

This is a freakin’ COMIC STRIP!!! Why don’t you people quit pondering its deeper meaning and GET A FREAKIN’ LIFE!!!!!

wasn’t there a book called the dirt, detailing the times of motley crue.

Don’t you just hate it when your favorite series ends the season on a cliffhanger, and you have to go through all summer just imagining what might have happened?

why the reruns, the story line was just getting interesting

“First comment. GT has reached a singular point of irrelevancy.”.OK then, you won’t be missed.

Merp…I notice that you are READING all these stupid comments. Where is YOUR freakin’ life?

The guy raving against the 60’s reminds me of the time someone wrote into a magazine about the death of Timothy Leary. The writer felt it was a perfect example of how drugs and the 60’s lifestyle would kill you. The man was 75! While this is not extremely old, it was not extremely young either. Love him or hate him, his life was not cut short by drugs. That fact was lost on the letter writer.

Yet, he is still relevant enough for you to point out that you are the first to post a comment on a rerun of a strip from a year ago.

I think Finbar Gurdy’s point is Mötley Crüe represents the excesses that Reagan and his crew glorified.

I lost track. Who’s getting married?

Merp…you said it all!

Thing I Like about re-runs: noticing details you missed the first time. In panel 2, collar shirt is buttoned up nicely, by 4 it’s undone and rumpled.

Jaysus, merp, what the f are you doing here? Haven’t you got a LIFE? Like SOMEWHERE ELSE? GO THERE! PLEASE!

STAY THERE.

There goes the whole field of literary criticism. I mean, are people writing whole books about Shakespeare? Don’t they know it’s not real, for pete’s sake?

Gramm is typical liberal. Wants to make sure we are all equal until it affects her family. Leo has a questionable past and Mom may be a tramp. Not likely to be accepted into Gramm’s family.

Good save Gram!!! And yes, Motley Crue is not from those “awful” sixties, it’s from those “even worse” eighties, nineties and uh-ohs. And thanx QuiteDragon for filling in the reasons why.

(Blows up merp) Problem solved! Treatment for troll exposure: continue to read comics and ponder their deeper meanings. :-)
