Schooled in a library, on today's Little Oop Sunday - 10 May 2020

Little Oop gets schooled in a library in today's Sunday installment. The schooling itself isn't ridiculous but what's purely preposterous and nonetheless nonsensical is that how on earth is Little Oop accepted in the school.

Little Penelope the girl genius tells Little Oop in the very first panel today that if he's going to keep coming to school with her, he's got to get caught up, that is, caught up with the subjects taught in her school. Yeaaah, like, suuure. The school where nobody notices a half-naked furry shorts wearing strange looking kid hangs around is going to question him and make him write examinations on the subjects taught there.

And when did Little Oop enroll in that school in the first place? What class does he belong to? And if he was, how was he enrolled in that school? Do schools in the US just enroll some half-naked kid wearing furry shorts just like that? And doesn't he need his parents or guardians to sign him up for enrolling there or something? Who is the target audience of this utter trash comic called Little Oop, some utter idiots? Sorry to sound harsh, but one has to be bewildered at this blowhard buffoonery.

This is absolutely asinine writing and I am freaking flabbergasted at how can utter trash like this get published. Why is Penelope teaching Little Oop the school subjects? Is he going to sit inside a class and write exams now? Doesn't anyone question that where on earth did this half-naked kid suddenly appear inside their school, and look into whether he was even enrolled in there or not? Does he have an i.d. card even? Don't they take attendance of kids inside class? Won't anyone notice a new weird looking half-naked kid and ask him who he is and how'd he get in there?

So many plot holes. So may gaping wide open plot holes that the entire plot itself is a big gaping wide open plot hole. I feel like waking into a library, picking up the heaviest book in there with the thickest and hardest of the hardbound covers and beat it on my head repeatedly with my bear hands after reading this turgid tripe.

Is Little Oop not knowing the school subjects is the only thing that's not going to let him hang around inside that school? This is utter utter nonsense. Not that I was expecting something other than utter nonsense in Alley Oaf, that is. Looks like the creators of this silly sitcomic think that the audience is full of outright oafs. Why else would someone write this sort of nonsense otherwise?
