As a child, I read far more than I socialized. As a result, I picked up some antiquated vocabulary. This sometimes made it difficult to make friends.

If they hadn’t read Anne of Green Gables, they probably wouldn’t have made a very cool friend anyway.

at least the friends you have can communicate with you lol

hahahaha, good stuff!

I knew you were referencing Anne of GG as soon as I read the title.

This hits pretty close to home. I think I probably had an exchange just like this one at some point in my childhood.

exactly how I felt! and I looooved Anne of GG :D

hahaha, love it!

Yup, I’m pretty sure I had a nearly identical episode somewhere in my childhood. I still love Anne, though :)
-
Yup, I’ve been there!

Hahaha!!! I’m glad to know that I am not the only one. I suppose that I could say that in a way we are kindred spirits…. :) If I knew you then, I would have chosen to be your bosom friend, you are pretty cool!

Hahaha! It’s weird, but there are worse things :)

Oh…. Kindred spirits. I bought just about every LM Montgomery book at B. Dalton’s when I was in third grade, and checked out all the Madeleine L’engle books from the library, and read them at recess.

[…] how I read a lot of books with antiquated vocabulary as a child? (See A Bosom Friend for more.) Well, here’s another comic based on that. When I asked for her opinion on this […]

Oh, how I loved Anne. I’ve also probably watched the show they did on PBS about 100 times. They just aired it last year and I watched it yet again.

I would LOVE to rewatch those! Maybe being sick is a good excuse for a marathon viewing… hmmm…

Definitely do it! It’ll cheer you up in between cough syrup doses.
