For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for September 12, 2018

then your teacher(s) will ask why there’s drool on the pages, Michael

When I was a super sleepy studier, my face just went down on whatever was there. Certain binders left interesting imprints in my face. Eventually they went away after I woke up but not before people were amused by them.

I guess Michael expects to learn by osmosis…

For all the time Michael spent building the perfect height to nod off he could have gotten several of his lessons done and out of the way.

The mother of invention at work.

This is why students shouldn’t study in bed – is there anywhere easier to fall asleep?

He’s resourceful in his goofing off.

Looks like someone needs to go to bed earlier.

Me too! Back to bed as soon as I’ve finished the comics.

Pages are gonna get wet from the drool.

He’s learning the principles of geometry and physics.

Study Hall !

Yep, I remember doing this as a tween…

If only Robin and Meredith could see him now.

Kids still argue for two hours about half an hours worth of homework. And for 13 days about a project due in two weeks.

Well they say that Chuck Norris doesn’t read. He just stares the book down until it gives him the information he needs/wants.

As I downloaded this strip, the first thing I saw was Michael’s comment in the last panel, before I saw the rest of it. For a split second, I thought it might be dialogue by Farley…..
