My parents had a saying: Stick your hand out too far, and it goes home in another car.
My cousin is a big Ravens fan. This strip is a blatant troll. Love ya, Talon. :D

Leading cause of accidental amputation and decapitation.
Haha, we got threatened similarly about the hands-out-window.
It didn’t help that when he was a teenager, my dad was driving, my brother was in the front passenger seat with one foot on the windshield (why, dad??) and the other curled between the top of car and partially opened window, sleeping. Dad went to close the window, not realizing, and brother screamed and kicked and broke the windshield.
Good times.
And it’s nice that Ken realizes Heather’s having a rough time and is taking steps.
Yeah! Let’s watch the Ravens get their asses kicked! *waves her Cleveland Browns flag*
Good to see Todd is trying to find someone to watch Selkie tonight instead of just taking her with him to the meetings. We know how it will end, but he’ll have a good reason for it when Mina asks why the kid’s along. “Well, party, irresponsible regular sitter, work, work, breaking the bank in Vegas, ran off to a football game…”
You can almost hear when that dad’s heart skips a beat.
I have to admit, when I first read that line, I missed the “the” before ravens, and was deeply concerned as to what Heather’s adoptive father considered conducive to mental health O_O
I have no particular sentiment for or against the Ravens …
Except when they make it so it takes an hour to drive a SINGLE! MOON! BLOOMING! CITY! BLOCK!
my brother-in-law used to live in an apartment on a one-way street across from the local college stadium. Every game day, it took fourty minutes to travel to the T-intersection. at that T-intersection, he had the same conversation with the same concerned civilian(a volunteer, /not/ a security guard or police officer, mind.) It boiled down to: “Yes, I know it’s a one-way street. I live on it. No, I’m not going to thank you stepping in front of my vehicle. No, I am NOT glad you’re trying to keep people from parking in the underground garage beneath my building. If one of the stadium goers DID park in my spot, I’d contact the police to have their vehicle impounded and bring them up on trespassing charges.”
on the subject of Heather, i find myself curious if she was a Packers fan before adoption, or just ambivalent about American Football and now learning to love her parents passions.
Seriously. WHY, BALTIMORE. WHY.
In Heather’s defense, she IS on the side of the road with no cars coming.
Well, from all indications, Heather and Kenny Fairweather *are* Cheeseheads…so sticking body parts out of a moving car does seem a possibility.
On my word! Kenny IS a cheesehead. . . don’t adoption agencies screen for that kind of thing?
I’m from ND where all the good god fearing folks are Vikings fans, the ignorant are fans of some myriad of the other various teams, and the malefactor’s and the unholy follow the packers.
I’m from the Twin Cities myself and you’d be surprised how many misguided folks are Packers fans. It makes me sad.
WRONG!

He was clearly a Steelers fan in the first place, probably converted to make Heather happy.
Did Mr. Fairweather take off his seatbelt between panels 4 and 5 and is Heather even wearing one?
Cheese?
Aren’t the Greenbay Packers named for the Acme Meat Packing company?
(Not that that’s a much more inspiring name origin either.
I’m not a sports trivia expert, so by all means, correct me if I’ve goofed there.
