Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 15, 2021

M. Night Shyamalan feels like he’s missing out on something and it’s driving him crazy.

oh yeah, it’s big brain time

“Suckers! I would have gone for 20!”

Max has a promising future in politics.

It might be good ‘politics’ with the kids in the class, but as a debate tactic… I think changing the question is an automatic disqualification.

way to uphand Phoebe there, Maxo

DAAAAAAAMN

That would mean your school day would last 15 minutes longer.

He knows that no one is going to listen to him, so he can pretty much say whatever he wants.

Ruh-roh.

I don’t think that’s how debates go Max. You generally pick different sides. But that is how you win over an audience.

Nice one, Max!

I thought he might point out that if recess was longer they would have to go home later.

That’s the kind of argument that would “wooo” the audience!

My vote is for Max! But that was a dirty move.

I blame the teacher. She should have given a better clarification of the topic.

Max wins this one!

I proposed this at work and got a note on my personnel file…

OK…so when did they start teaching PoliSci in grade school. There is no way that even Max came up with that.

Wow, Max is already five steps ahead of everybody here.

Wow, Max actually pulled a Bait-and-Switch right there when he said, “Recess shouldn’t be five minutes longer”, before adding that it should be 15 minutes longer.

SECURITY!!!! Please escort Ric Flair out the nearest exit…..

Now, imagine if the trade for 5’ longer, or 15’ longer, was to add up all those increments and add the appropriate number of days at the end of the school year. Hmm.

gasp! twist!!

Max, your fly is open. Or that’s your trousers on the floor? It fell off you.

So where do you two stand on the minimum wage?

Make recess shorter but have 2 of them 15 minutes each.

Aw yeah, this is big brain time
