Parents Just Don't Understand

Stoner mom is stoned.

A. J. Alfieri-Crispin

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

Emma Humphries

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.

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

Gary Walker

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

Patrick Jackson

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

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

Bagge

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

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.

Carl Fink

I think it's an H: Hat

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

Koala. Never leave home with one.

BobC

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

Ben Russell-Gough

And the parental teasing. Don't forget that.

Edward Clayton Andrews

GOD the power of the MOM

Drakoo Dreamer

Is that really what makes that so Disturbing, Clinton?

Stoodmuffin

that face he has at the end is priceless.

Landy K Hayes

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

Dean Reilly

omg I am dying here

Rook Hallan

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?

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

BobC

*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.

Andrew

KITE. Nobody should leave home without one.

Celine Chamberlin

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

BobC

Keys? Kaleidoscope?

Andrew

I want to know what the last word of that blue sign behind them is.

'cock' 'block'

Gary Walker

He can hear the quotation marks? I need to know this trick his mom knows.

darklion

I think Clinton has had to deal with enough shit lately. I still love his mom though. &lt;3

Nicholas Lopez

The funny thing is I’m 99% sure Ms. Augustus knows what both of those phrases mean considering certain past events.

Will Weaver

She's not even high anymore, this is just what she's like
