Been nice to see that , does Paige know how to ice skate, I certain do not know how to. The following nothing to do with today’s strip, 2 days ago with Peter eating sandwiches, a group started talking as I did on, on my case very little thyroid, found out one poster is like me. My metabolism is very low and very hard struggle with weight: I do not dressing vinegar and too many calories, allergic to chocolate, and portion size as depends on what I eat. I do take generic Synthroid, then later iron does help but messes me up not what you think. That is my daily struggle.
Usually the unintended joke in strips like this is that the writers don’t have any idea what kind of moves real figure skaters are capable of. What’s ironic here is that Paige is about twenty years ahead of what female figure skaters were doing at the time. Women (well, teenaged girls, usually Russian) only started doing quads about a year or so ago, and triple axels are far more common now than they were back when this strip was published. If Paige had been able to duplicate that feat she probably could have won the Olympics of her day.

The trick is to act as though you meant to do those moves.

I tried ice skating once. Twisted my ankle putting on my skates.

Sounds like my sister and she hated that I could do all that stuff and she couldn’t. I tried to teach her but she always got frustrated and gave up.
