542: Cover-Up
explain xkcd: It's 'cause you're dumb.
| Cover-Up |
 Title text: Man, this trick has saved me so many times. |
[edit] Explanation
Gullible means easily deceived or naïve. This is a game many people play with each other "Whoa, someone wrote 'gullible' in the sky!" "Did you know when you look at the Microsoft logo upside-down it looks like the word 'gullible'?" Those that are gullible have to check. Those that aren't, don't, in fact they will pointedly not do the thing that the first person has suggested (try to look at the Microsoft logo upside down, look up at the ceiling) as a show of how non-gullible they are. Black hat uses this to his advantage to cover up copious bloodstains on a ceiling.
The story in this comic may be a continuation of 515: No One Must Know.
