I’m guessing that’s not part of any second grade vocabulary unit.
And if it were, the girl using it in this manner probably wouldn’t intimidate the teacher out of teaching it.

Wrong Paige
I think this is the first comic I’ve seen where the adult is explaining cell phones (or any other new technology) to an ignorant child.
OT and Mostly Rhetorical
Is the random Capitalization of Nouns making a comeback after 200-some years, or is this just part of our trend toward functional illiteracy?

And Andréa sent me this as synchronicity with the Argyle Sweater strip.

It was clearly intended as a compliment, and the only explanation for Frazz’s comment is that he’s been inhaling cleaning fluid

OT: Ticketmaster
So… pretty much any ticket you buy for anything has to be bought through Ticketmaster now, with “convenience fees” of about 25%. There’s no competition, usually no option of calling the box office to buy tickets directly, and often no option of GOING TO the box office to buy tickets directly.
Basically, Ticketmaster has a choke-hold on the market and gets their cut on everything.
It’s hard to imagine other fields where this would be even remotely legal.
