Delicate ecosystem? Uncle Ted might need some meds

Halo can be intense

EARLY COMMENT

I should try playing Halo sometime.

Ted needs professional help…and a few kicks in the rear

Looser!*

*intentionally misspelled as losers often do

That’s what happens when you spend too much time playing Halo, Uncle Ted.

I don’t really play Halo, but I listen to Shadow of Intent, an epic deathcore band whose name and first two albums are based on Halo

Ted sounds like my roommate Paul.

Bro uncle Ted’s haircut I just realised

I take it Doctor Smith from Lost in Space was his role model. “Nate, my dear boy, my back is a disaster area.”

What is Halo? A game or something?

Bro actually still plays that game. It’s okayish for some younger people, but he’s forty!

Peirce has some old references I swear XD Ted would be playing League of Legends, Genshin Impact, Marvel Rivals.

Yes Halo has a tendency to do that, but only to the characters in the game.

This is Ted.

He’s a lazy bum who mooches off his parents despite being a full-grown adult.

Don’t be like Ted.

bro was almost falling off the sofa playing halo

Nate, introduce your Uncle Ted to a nice quarter mile of ice…

Wimp

These Uncle Ted jokes are already old

Quite the slacker if you ask me

..hate to admit it, but given the out-of-shape-and= often-even-elderly/massive heart attack ratio associated with snow-shoveling, the Tedster probably SHOULDN’T even be shoveling snow……..Grandma should make him help with the dishes, dust around the house, clean the johns and stuff like that……..

pathetic… :L

Excuse…..not a good reason…..need to “work it out”!!!!!

I don’t get it

Say what

Of course muscles that are never used spasm. Ugh

tennis ball. good boy.

While playing halo, what? how does someone blow out their back playing a video game?

“When my body begins to reel from my physical labors, I make an occasional cheese dip.”

Not for nothing, but if what Ted described in Panel Three actually happened (of course I think he’s full of malarkey), he wouldn’t be standing, he’d be in a wheelchair.

Nobody cares.

Nate is somehow more mature than his uncle who is more than 3 times older than him.

Evict this man

Ted!….GET OUT!!!!

There’s something ironic about a snowflake shoveling the driveway.
