TEXT OF COMIC:

My dad just got me a car!

Congratulations. Now you can destroy the natural environment as well as the social scene.

Oh, don't be all prejudiced against cars. Mine gets 35 miles to the gallon.

Well, I've got that beat, anyway. I walk and ride my bike everywhere I go.

Oh? And how many gallons of food and water do you have to consume in order to walk 35 miles?

Okay, I give up. You win. Whatever number I give will seem excessive to a girl who somehow manages to survive through each day on half a carrot.

See, that's why I need a car. If I walked more, I'd have to eat more, and my weight might balloon up to 80 pounds.
