Joke police here. We don’t have “elementary school” in England. Pack it all up please.
Interesting. Here in my parts of the states (like everything, it varies widely across the country) we have elementary school from 1st-5th grade (so like 6-7 up to 10-11), middle school from 6th-8th grade (like 10-11 up to 13-14), and high school from 9th-12th (about 13-14 up to 17-18, and some school districts are big enough to have a “freshman campus” because they needed more space for all the kids).
And most kids go to kindergarten the year before 1st grade, and some even go to preschool the year before kindergarten as well.
Fake. Sherlock would know it’s Primary school in England.
So, the joke is just paedophilia?
Edit: Okay so according to the comment below “Elementary, my dear Watson” is his catch phrase. hence, the joke. Thanks for clearing that up Famko.
It’s a pretty lame comic trying to ride on having a controversial “punchline.”
If it was posted on a larger site like reddit it would probably be on front-page just because of the drama and controversy people would extract from it.
This is an unusual comment I’m gonna make, unusual for me b/c I get phased by violent content and not dark humor
Comic made me a little uncomfortable maybe because it’s actually showing implied child abuse. If it’s just alluded to then it’s just your imagination and you don’t imagine it well enough way it’s painful, but they show it & it’s like “bro that guy’s a child rapist holy shit wtf”
Plus the lowest possible defense, 4chan-esque “akshually ephebophilia” “but in Japan…”, don’t even fly for Sherlock
Edit: also there’s no greater point as you’ve mentioned, like if he wore a Jared Subway mask… potential big change in vibe
Yeah idk. There is a Sherlock Holmes show called “Elementary” but that doesnt really make any sense here. Weird comic.
Sherlock Holmes’ “catchphrase”, for lack of a better term, is “Elementary, my dear Watson”, which is parodied in this comic.

Fun fact though, Sherlock never actually says these phrases together. He does say “Elementary” and “… my dear Watson” but not together.
But really this is just an “akchtually” comment
To akchtually your akchtually… He doesn’t say it in the original books, but he has been saying in secondary sources for over a 100 years. So I don’t think people are wrong in saying that it’s his catch phrase.
I’d like to think of an akchtually to your akchtually but I actually can’t think of anything to rebut with.
Everybody knows Sherlock Holmes, nobody knows anything about Sherlock Holmes… 🙄
It’s a bit weird the artist drew an “elementary” school girl in their underwear though.
Gods I am not awake yet. I was legit confused why he was getting led away if the Lady taught Elementary school. Had to read that like 4 times before it finally clicked that the joke was she’s IN Elementary.
Me: Surely this will have a witty endi— 😳🫢🤮
