Mary Worth 2300

So, apparently nothing happened at Harlan's home... Not that I wanted Dawn to get hurt, but I'm also pretty furious that our author may think it is perfectly normal for a young college student to go over to her professor's home alone to practice yoga. Also, I'm furious that Dawn thinks that sandwich looks appetizing.

Today's full strip

  1. I wonder what the other cafeterias on campus look like.

    Are those people behind Dawn and Harlan dining, or are they in a time out for running in the cafeteria? (Only a Mr. Bungle runs in the cafeteria)

  2. I had a great joke about Dawn inheriting Wilbut's sandwich fixation but Josh over at Comics Curmudgeon beat me to it. The cafeteria reminds me more of my grade school in the 1950s than any college or university.

    @fauxprof: I agree with you there! Harlan looks like he just stepped out of a "Mad Men" episode. But then he said "awesome" and totally broke the illusion. Drat!

  4. Ah, lunch in a cafeteria! My favorite venue for watching Giella's Continuity Follies. Already in P2, Harlan's sammich has morphed into a packet of Mickey D's fries, and his beverage bottle into a large glass tumbler. Note also that the blonde lady in the pink top has apparently been raptured.

  5. I didn't think it was possible for Dawn to appear even dumber, but I was wrong, wrong, wrong. There appears to be no limit to her level of dumbness.

    Here's what will be REALLY awesome - when Harlan stops shaking that glass and dumps water all over Dawn. Ha ha ha!

  6. Where are the tats? The piercings? What kind of a school is this?

  7. I like that Harlan's bottle turns into a glass in the second panel, and that he's attempting to unscrew it... or maybe it's still a bottle and he unscrews it with his palm, like every normal human being.

    Yoga at the good professor's home and now lunch together. Me thinks their protestations that they are not interested in dating will not last long. Besides, how long can Dawn's commitment to improving her mind last?

  9. I thought it wasn't possible for me to dislike Harlan more, but his misuse of the word "awesome" has definitely put him in competition for Sleaze of the Year.

  10. Actually, didn't Professor Harlan Jones' porn 'stache already win Sleaze of the Year honors for him?

  11. Appears the cafeteria is saving money by not supplying plates - they just drop your food directly on the tray. Yum.

  12. Is Dawn being facetious? Or is she really just that dumb? The part of Harlan Jones is being played in this panel by Tennessee Ernie Ford.
