I think the title is self explanatory.
I hope so.

Is Sydney's 12th birthday cannon?

That is an absolutely nuclear-level "dad story"...poor Sydney XD

Really, REALLY strange that Sydney is their only kid. I'm just sayin'. Sam wouldn't have just one...I hope. ππ

Sydney's Mum has got it going on :)

I am pretty sure that is a battle axe handle. You can see the axe in the drawing and can see part of the blade at the bottom of the page.

Yeah, I thought it was funny that Sydney Sr and Jr shared a preference.

I don't think I quite noticed the level of height difference before!

Gotta pay her way through law school somehow. Nice she got a family out of it too

I recognize the walking stick from my time as a nude model to assist in holding a pose that would be difficult to hold without something to help you balance. Seriously, keeping the dangly bits hidden by holding a leg in an unnatural position requires help sometimes.

Well, it appears are that Mr. Scoville is a "mountain climber"...

My favorite is the full bush picture.

Unlike the TV series "How I Met Your Mother," at least Sydney's dad got right to the point instead of dragging it out season after season...
2022-01-11 02:27:11 +0000 UTC
Nice, and I can completely see her dad telling that story at her birthday!
And the ensuing embarrassment.
My parent friends have informed me that embarrassing and tormenting your children is the best part of being a parent. :D
Also, #3 FTW!

I was 99% sure that Dad was telling an embarrassing story, but I did allow a 1% chance that it was Mom, because she did marry the big dork, after all; so she's gotta have a bit of the wild-side in her.

Sooo, why does Sr's expression remind me of Ray Cosmos there? ...and why are neither of them looking at each other?

I almost see this as a Chekovβs gun situation where Iβd expected her to model the super empowering bikini from the Krognar poster then doing more βartisticβ poses.

It's a light monitoring device thingy, to check light levels if I understand correctly. It's used in professional photography.

There really needs to be a full color version of the final two frames

Oh the blush from seeing a heavy metal cover for the first time. Thatβs a familiar feeling.

Also, I think 2 and 3 are out of order. But still very nice!

My head cannon is that Sydney's dad actually can't remember the pube situation from back then, and so just changes the story every time. What Sydney's MOM thinks of that is left as an exercise for the reader.

This actually explains how they might work as a couple.

Though Sydney is something of a prodigy (smarter/more skilled than their age would imply), I believe the word you're looking for is progeny (offspring).

He's a dad - embarrassing his prodigy is in the job description.

And I'd kill dear ole dad right then and there. I love this one in particular.

It's like one of those spot the difference puzzles, but with pubes!

how much did he tell her of the "origin"
