    Heh. The misery of the poor saps who didn’t learn in childhood.

    It really is way harder to learn than it is to reme…

    It’s just like riding a bike. That’s almost verbatim what I was going to say there. I’m surprised I didn’t spontaneously turn into a dad there.

    Clearly, Bug is not Canadian.

      I resent that. -I- am Canadian and I got my local hockey team witch hats.

    I don’t get how anyone can ice skate either. I can’t keep my balance for more then a few seconds.

    i don’t mean to be that guy, but I will be anyway I guess. Shouldn’t “request” in panel 4 be “requested”?

      Not necessarily.

      As it is written, it says that he has decided (in the past) that all hockey players are witches and desires (in the present, that is still desires) lethal force by the zamboni drivers.

    Panel 4: Given that holy water is salt water, putting it on an ice rink would indeed mess up those hockey players.

      Depends on how cold they keep the ice. Salt impurities lower the melting point of water, but ice is slippery for a multitude of reasons that involve it being close to the melting point anyway.

      In what religion is holy water salt water? In the Catholic Church holy water is ordinary freshwater that has been blessed.

        The Mormon one, I think, what with Salt Lake City and all that.

        Also Wicca, and comments I’d heard made me think that this was a usual Christian thing that they’d swiped.

        In the Faith of the Drowned God, for sure. What is dead, can never die!

    I have several friends who play hockey.

    Therefore, I can confirm that this is accurate.

    Ahh Mental Mouse Holy water is not salt water……. Holy water is made with a prayer and can be water from anywhere.

    There are shrines where the fresh water that is there is holy water simply by flowing though the shrine.

    I thought you got Holy Water by boiling the Hell out of regular water. Well, according to dads everywhere…
