SOME DAY I WILL RULE YOU ALL.
I commend Foxtrot on its creativity. It often makes you think, and in this case, it makes you translate. It's very rarely your standard "dads like golf," "teenagers are lazy" tired cliche.
That said, this isn't particularly funny. Some day I will rule you all. Huh. Probably. Jason Fox is such a brain that he's surely a future Bill Gates or Steve Jobs. Jeff Bezos at the least. More than likely Jason Fox will indeed one day be vastly more successful than the Randy/Paula/Simons of the local middle school talent show.
I guess I expected a little more. A hidden message. It's an interesting way to do a strip. I think it could have been a little more subversive. Not profane, per se, but just a little more . . . sneaky?

Foxtrot has had me since their Halloween strips over the original iMac. ("What's so scary about that?" "I don't have a floppy drive! I don't have a floppy drive!")

Did you Google it Big Al?
Nope. I used to be in the Navy, and remembered just enough Morse to figure this one out.
"BESURETODRINKYOUROVALTINE"
Nice reference.
That made me smile a little.
