Frazz by Jef Mallett for October 11, 2020

“So I gets into an argument with some guy on the street and it turns out that he’s a cop, so I sez to him, ‘You know who I am?’ and he sez no and I sez, ’good” and walked away."

Is it just me, or do those glasses make him look a little like Mitch McConnell?

So young to have your life flash before your eyes.

Oops

Like he didn’t know

BUSTED…

I don’t see humor here. Unless I missed other times, this is the first time I have seen Caulfield refer to Mrs. Olsen in such demeaning and derogatory terms. I previously believed his classroom high jinks were done out of fun, a kind of friendly but respectful game playing. Now it appears he has fallen from his highest point [see Feb 08, 2015] as a precocious but thoughtful person to just mean. Mallett, beware of cuteness. It rarely translates well.

you need glasses with those glasses

Mrs. Olsen is extremely hyperoptic, hence the oyster eye magnification.

and you now have a detention…..

Sometimes we all step on our own tongues… Caufield just did it while wearing golf shoes.

Best laugh I’ve had all week. =^______________^=

I don’t have the impression that Mrs Olsen is hidebound and clueless. Or that she’s mean to kids.

Nope. He’s toast.

Strange, when she wears her glasses, we can’t see her eyes at all.

Or maybe the differences in worldviews are due to their differences in age, gender, and race, but good luck proving that (maybe the age one in 50 years…)

Would someone please punish this kid? He’s not actually cute or likable, and his good vocabulary doesn’t exonerate him at all.

That must be a heck of a prescription for Mrs. Olsen to look like Frazz.
