Don't know if you know but the key to avoiding that "character builder" is to NOT open the window on the ground after a flight. It worked for me.
I remember the first time a window re-sealed/seated on climbout after I had opened it up on the ground. It sounded like a gunshot and you had to peel me off the ceiling! If you do open it, when you close it bang on the 4 corners and it won't be so bad.
