Let's see. Sunglasses indoors. I'm thinking he's either a druggie trying to hide his eyes to avoid detection or those glasses are an expensive fashion accessory and he's showing off. NOTE: These are not mutually exclusive. The drink, presumably an alcohol-based concoction such as a "martini" with ambiguous fruit which could be an olive, certainly doesn't clear up either of those possibilities. At best we see he's wearing cold temperature clothing, long sleeves and pants, and yet his foot is exposed, bare with no sock.

What can we deduce from that? Maybe it's a prosthetic leg? If so, that could mean a couple of things. But foremost, we have to consider the possibility that his prosthetic leg is the result of an injury that also left him infertile?

I had an uncle that lost a leg and one testicle in a fall off the top of a building. Doctors told him he would never have kids, but 10 years later that was proved to be a lie. My cousin Ricky was a miracle baby, even if he did look like my uncle's girlfriend's ex-boyfriend. I mean, blonde hair and blue eyes doesn't run in our family, and I know it doesn't run in Shelly's family either, so where did that come from? On the other hand, everybody in Ray's family, even the mixed kids, have blonde hair and blue eyes. So do the math and get back to me on that one.

You’re probably right, the guy in the comic fell of a ladder and lost a leg AND his nuts.
