Dagwood has never bought a bird in his life, what's the story there

Blondie, 1/25/22

OK, a cat wedding isn't that wacky -- like maybe it's in the top 20 percent of wacky things that might conceivably happen to a caterer -- but this strip did make me realize that frankly nothing particularly wacky ever happens to Dagwood. Like, he goes to work, annoys his carpool, gets yelled at by his boss, eats fast food, etc., etc. Oh, did you go to a bird store and the bird store guy said something weird about the bird, Dagwood? BORING. What I'm trying to say is that he should know better than now to try to one-up his wife on this point.
