Stoner mom is stoned.

Emma Humphries

So now we need a Ms. Augustus "Hello, fellow teens" shirt?

I... I guess there's a world before you've contemplated your mother saying that to you and a world after, and there's no going back.

Gary Walker

Not that much younger, as Ms. Augustus supports Claire and wouldn't have a pre-transition photo of her up in the house, methinks.

Patrick Jackson

At least she's using the youth-speak correctly.

Ben Russell-Gough

Bonus points to those who noticed the picture of younger Claire and Clinton in panel 1!

Next morning: "Cliiiinton, Brun is here for coooookies"

Properly did an awkward laugh and went "oh my godddd".

Carl Fink

I like the way half-drunk Clinton is perfectly capable of keeping up his end of the witty banter, actually. One-sided witty banter can feel mean-spirited after a while.

I think it's an H: Hat

This storyline. I love it. Sorry to hear about Shelby, though. :'-(

Koala. Never leave home with one.

Ben Russell-Gough

Yeah, Clinton, it's true: Claire DOES get it from her.

Edward Clayton Andrews

And the parental teasing. Don't forget that.

GOD the power of the MOM

Is that really what makes that so Disturbing, Clinton?

Landy K Hayes

that face he has at the end is priceless.

Dean Reilly

You were meant to hear the quotation marks, Clinton. How else is your mother supposed to show you how 'cool' and 'hip' she is?

Rook Hallan

omg I am dying here

It's in the emphasis of the words. Almost Shatner-esque but not as sharp. It's how you pause and then speak. "Oh no! Were you hoping to ... hook up ... with her? Did I ... cock block ... you?" Basically, "hearing" the quotation marks, is all about the ellipses use in speech. Does that help?

BobC

I just removed the ell from each "clock" in your comment, Andrew. Does it read better?

Andrew

*rushes out* “Brun come back, the clock is running slow again! I’m off to fetch the clocksmith, can you hand-wind it with Clinton please?”

Andrew

She’s gets high to dial it down a notch.

Celine Chamberlin

KITE. Nobody should leave home without one.

Eir W

"Did you remember your K-" What could it be? Ketamine? Kangaroo Slippers? Keytar?
