This is a very timely strip. Saturday and Sunday there’s no sales tax in MA, which really seems to bring out the… well, the most Massacusetts-eque behavior in people.

Full Frontal Rudity is an awesome name for a band.

I was ignorant of this, but the wild turkey is the state game bird. State bird is the black-capped chickadee.

Ha, that state bird is absolutely PERFECT! I mean, chickadees are cute and all, but really.

I’ve driven in Massachusetts & I can see why other people from outside the state call the drivers in that state a bunch of “Massholes” when it comes to being rude. I used to live in Mass. years and have had some of the best times in my life when I lived in Ft. Devens. But, now that I am much older I avoid driving in Mass. if I can avoid it.

The unofficial motto of the City of Chicago is:“Ubus is meam” - “Where’s mine?”.8^)

Poor Buck! The very dupe of imposition by the filth out on the streets.

I thought this strip was set in Canada. Or is it just that Rob is Canadian?

We call it the “Boston Wave” here.

Think I remember that Darby spent time in Knoxville, TN. Tennesseans are probably the most polite culture in the country, so I suspect the contrast is noticeable.

O.K. “Get Fuzzy” is a great strip, but this one is killer! Full frontal rudity. Excellent! The whole strip is hilarious—a great cats-eye view. Bucky is surely the cat’s meow! Thanks, Darby!

Living in the neighboring state of NH I can honestly say I can’t stand the b@$t@rds

Well, at least they’re consistent. They did dump all that tea way back when, remember? Don’t think they ever said “Excuse me.”
