<p>Jilkscom56: </p> <hr /> <div>*I am not sure that hypochondriac is spelled hypochrondiac. According to the dictionary it is hypochondriac. I wonder if RM will fix this. --[[User:Grep|Grep]] ([[User talk:Grep|talk]])<br /> <br /> *I think hypochondriac is the right spelling (according to Google and Wikipedia)<br /> <br /> *What are &quot;death mites&quot;?<br /> <br /> *I feel like a Hypochondriac's nightmare would be dying from a disease that they detected at the earilest stage, but could do absolutely nothing about. #TEBOWTIME 10:33, 20 August 2012 (UTC)<br /> <br /> *Don't you think the Title Text is more suggesting that Randal has a rash and he made the comic to calm himself down, but then it turns out that he has death mites in real life?</div>

<p>Jilkscom56: Added description of 2045, because apparently it only take me 2 years to forget that one...</p> <hr /> <div>{{comic<br /> | number = 1093<br /> | date = August 10, 2012<br /> | title = Forget<br /> | image = Forget.png<br /> | imagesize = <br /> | titletext = 'Baby Got Back' turned 20 this year. My favorite nostalgia show is VH1's 'I Love The Inexorable March of Time Toward the Grave That Awaits Us All.'<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==Explanation==<br /> The median age in {{w|USA}} is about 35 years. This means that anything that happened longer ago than that (plus the first five or six years of one's life, where they're too young to remember cultural events) will be remembered by a minority of people. For example, here in 2012, the majority of Americans are too young to remember the 1970s.<br /> <br /> Title Text - This is in reference to the vastly over-saturated programming on VH1 dedicated to the history of the TV universe.<br /> <br /> 2045 - &quot;Trying to say Eyjafjallajökull&quot; Is a reference to a volcano in Iceland that erupted from 20 March 2010 through 23 May 2010. The eruption threw volcanic ash several kilometres up in the atmosphere which led to air travel disruption in northwest Europe for six days from 15th to 21st of April.
