And then they kiss and got each other boy-preggers.

This is almost exactly an old Calvin & Hobbes joke.

I don't if OP stripped the comic of its identifying info or found it in that state, but if anyone else is interested, the comic artist is berkeleymews

there was two guys who were tasked with creating the street layout in Seattle, when it was being established. They were notorious for hating each other. they split the downtown in half and so to this day, half of downtown works one way and the other half works another.

Pike and Pine Streets are the mid point and even today you can see that division that they created

I liked this without even knowing whether this is true.

of course I bastardized the story but if you want to learn about it, the two guys are Arthur Denny and David Maynard. The two that hated each other so much that even in their day it was legendary

I’m bad enough at city builders before you start adding wild animals and bandits

It fits the theme of the meme, but is it actually any good? The reviews say it's buggy abandonware.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 1 points 15 hours ago

It’s been years since I played, but the bugs were tolerable enough that I didn’t encounter anything game breaking.

It’s an okay city builder, but when measured up to Banished it comes out short.
