The white balance is off in this comic. [[User:Mikemk|Mikemk]] ([[User talk:Mikemk|talk]]) 04:39, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />
:Where? I checked it in gimp and the white balance is fine. In fact, the .png file for this comic uses the greyscale colour mode.[[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.130|141.101.98.130]] 09:57, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />

I thought the arthropods mentioned were meant to be a reference to pubic lice (crabs). [[Special:Contributions/141.101.104.42|141.101.104.42]] 06:11, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />

There's no reason to think the Title Text is from Megan to Pony tail. It could just as easily be the other way around. [[Special:Contributions/173.245.54.47|173.245.54.47]] 12:30, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />

Could this be a prequel to [http://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1014:_Car_Problems 1014: Car Problems]? [[User:Luc|Luc]] ([[User talk:Luc|talk]]) 15:33, 13 June 2016 (UTC)<br />

Possibly inspired by What If #97? Randall talks about oxidation and mentions car rusting vs. car combustion. [[User:Meareaperson|Meareaperson]] ([[User talk:Meareaperson|talk]]) 18:05, 13 June 2016 (UTC)</div>Meareaperson
