==Explanation==
This comic is a reference to the game of creating your "porn star name" by putting your pet's name as your first name and the street you grew up on as your last name. For example: Max (Dog's name) Pine (Street name).  In this comic, [[Randall]] would have named his cat "Mister" and had moved to "Rogers" Street and so his kid's porn name would be "{{w|Fred_Rogers|Mister Rogers}}" (from the children's show "{{w|Mister_Rogers'_Neighborhood}}"), which is pretty high on the very unsexy name scale (if there was one) especially for a porn actor.

In this way, Randall has prevented his kid from getting into porn.

In the image text, he references the other way of creating a porn star name by using your middle name as your first name and the street still as your last name.  Additionally, the image text references comic [[327: Exploits of a Mom]] in which [[Mrs. Roberts]] puts {{w|SQL}} instructions into her son's name so that it will mess with the database at school.  In 327, the kid's name is "Robert'); DROP TABLE students;" and we are led to believe the person in the comic above may be the same [[Little Bobby Tables]].
