Yet another strip set in Satan’s office. Nothing special: just a bit of academic humour that sprung from my fascination with the fact that students at university seemed to look for any excuse to skip class. The prof was two minutes late? Skip class. It’s snowing lightly? Skip class. What I found hilarious was the fact that these students were PAYING GOOD MONEY for each class that they skipped. According to my calculations, I paid about $65 for every fifty minute lecture.
Do you suppose it is weird that I went to a Uni where at least everyone in my department took the work, lectures and all, seriously?

Or do you suppose it is more based on subject than location?
Nah, it’s weird no matter what your location.
We were the Earth Sciences department… and we loved our subject… even if our subject largely consisted of drawing rocks.
I want to go to that school…I will take a C average over poor teaching skills, a lack of a desire to teach, or personal agendas/beliefs (or lack there of) getting in the way of knowledge. Oh and a C average over having to take classes that have nothing to do with my professional goals…
How about C average AND having to take classes that have nothing to do with your professional goals? Worst of both worlds!
Drawing Rocks – EGAD !
(it never gets old)
Nor should it!
succulent Succulent SUCCULENT
Please tell me this delightful adjective is a constant companion to the strip’s itinerary from this point on.
The word is just … so … Succulent !
(expect that succulent plants are so NOT succulent. sigh. just a tiny mystery of life)
Alas, I believe this is the only occurrence.
EGAD!
