Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for June 10, 2022

Has Darryl been taking “lessons” from Crankshaft??!!

/SHMIRK/

BBQ season – the comics version.

How is Darryl MacPherson more Tik-Tokkable than the Foxes’ father Roger when it comes to barbecue grilling?

You’re lucky your hat is the only thing to burn, Darryl. That schnoz got might close to the flames.

Bet it goes on You Tube as well!

Haha! XD

What, no Butch trying to outdo Darryl’s pyrotechnics?

And that landed on his head how?

It’s bad enough to use too much charcoal lighter fluid, but on hot days it vaporizes quicker and even a normal amount can do this if you wait too long to light it.

Happy to say I’ve never “tick-tocked”.

Can you make frozen hamburger patties in the toaster?

This reminds me of all the barbecue strips from Foxtrot. Gotta love a grillin’ dad!! haha!

In real life, would he stomp out the flames while wearing sandals and no socks? And then would he put the still-smoldering hat back on his head? Wouldn’t he run into the house, fill something with water, and use that to put out the flames? OK, it’s just a comic strip.

Yeah, that one is going to go viral Darryl.

They are VERY proud.

Grilling for 55 years, don’t use lighter fluid, or the match light charcoal. Weber chimney, with a sheet of newspaper to start it.

I sure do love a good “FOOM”!

Only you can prevent forest fires. Only you!-Smokey the Bear.

As long as he survives being most Tiktok-able, go for it!

Darryl, you need to move to another comic strip where they give you some respect and don’t portray you as an eternal incompetent.
