Sometimes you just have to do your own version of a classic joke.
In other news, great events cast their shadows (far) ahead. If you know where to look for them.
- Sandra: I’m tired of practicing the piano!
- Richard: Look at it this way:
- Richard: When you’re grown up, you’ll look back in horror to all those wasted hours of your youth and appreciate your current life much more.
- Sandra: I believe the saying goes differently.
- Richard: Whatever.

Good ‘ol dads…
I want that shirt she’s wearing
Richard is channeling his inner Sailor Venus…..his next comment could be “All’s well that ends in a well…” or “Consider yourself caught between a rock and a roll….”
The math genius has deducted that the bottle of grape juice is the source of the problem. she’ll have to add sour pine to the equation next fatherly lesson semester.
But to be honest, playing the piano is a great way to channel your inner artistic yearnings, and also to impress people who can’t tell real classical music talent from mere improvising.
Not to mention, Sandra, that if Woo gets his hands on the piano, you’ll be forever embarrassed that your pet raccoon can play better than you.
I can’t quite read Sandra’s shirt; what’s in the bottom section, inside the radical?
“In other news, great events cast their shadows (far) ahead. If you know where to look for them.”
This, people, is called foreshadowing.

@ Hobbes:
“Genius” 🙂

@ Iron Ed:
Ha! Jinx!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
What divided by genius equals math?
Look at it this way, when you it comes time to choose which nursing home to put dad in, you will look back at the piano lessons and time he made you waste practicing the piano, and carefully choose the most appropriate nursing home for him. And that would be the one he hates the most which will make sure he has no freedom whatsoever.
@ Vinom: I believe it’s a squareroot synbol.
I don’t get it either. :/
I’ll take that challenge! 😉
Hard to argue with logic you can’t follow.
Richard is right. Even now I regret not doing more math homework. I’m not even joking. If I had actually done the homework, I would be better at math and I wouldn’t struggle with it as much. I regretted abandoning piano lessons in third grade so much that I’ve actually signed up to start over from scratch. Kids have no idea what wonderful, productive things they could be doing rather than watching Spongebob Squarepants or playing Xbox.
@ Iron Ed:
Hai Jinx? Hijinx? LOL wut?
@ Calan:
Their replies, “Genius” are timestamped at the same time.
@ sribbleinc: “Math is the root of genius” What’s not to get?
Is he drunk? XD
@ Calan:
That says “Ha!” not “Hai”. He was pointing out that they said the same thing, and so he “Jinxed” them.
I don’t get it? Can anyone enlighten me on the original saying that Richard just butchered?
@ Bucc-i:
It’s supposed to be about appreciating your youth, but he’s turned it around.
I just noticed this quotations on the top (only on the english page).
Fore example: “Kaagia aag Scc as gr uie srn.” – H. C. Reynolds [1948]
If anybody already clearified this I´m sorry, but what exactly is this supposed to be?
Are you leaking names of famous followers of Cthulhu? Or are you trying to subtly plant the
seed of insanity?
@ Lyhawk:
It’s a code, the first three words are “Sandra and Woo”, i have no clue about the others (which differ per quotation)
@Lyhawk:
Not 100% sure, but the one that reads, “Psidms sid Vjj cp ktmr ojgd,” may translate to, “Sandra and Woo is pure gold.”
@Lyhawk seed? i’m already the most insane person within 100 miles of me! unless larissa lives in that area, then i’m sorry to her. don’t kill me!!

I think Richard’s been hanging out with Calvin’s dad. Perhaps they’re drinking buddies? Calvin’s dad would be a bit more blunt: “It builds character.”
@ Aikachi:
You know what, you’re right!
…
They could be playing Halo instead. I mean there’s no stimulation in simply using the console without putting a game in it.
Piano lessons: utterly pointless… until you realise the skills can be transferred to a computer keyboard, probably without you even noticing.
.
I didn’t know I could touch-type until someone asked me how I was doing it. I didn’t realise I could type at apparently high speed until people started asking me to type things up for them. And then when all of this sank in, I realised that those ten years of being forced to play piano HAD actually contributed a useful life-skill afterall…
Much to my annoyance.
Finally, someone who actually had to do it and doesn’t want to mislead his kid…
I think Sandra’s perfect revenge would come about when the piano leads to the electronic keyboard…and from there, to DUBSTEP.
