The title text is ambiguous. It could mean that Cueball should not risk his other self disappearing, or it could mean that the risk is Hairy disappearing. | The title text is ambiguous.

| − | + | ; Alternative explanation | |
| + | By a very big stretch of imagination we can think that the other person is [[Megan]] instead of Hairy (i.e. a female instead of a male). | ||
| + | |||
| + | If the character is Megan, the third panel is her having reconsidered that she would rather Cueball not make out with anyone other than her, by threatening that she would leave him. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Supposedly the title text does not help in deciding this if this alternative is correct or not. If it is Megan, Cueball should stay safe and not make out with himself. If it is not, he should play it safe and make out now, before his alternate self goes back to the parallel universe. | ||
| + | |||
| + | All this ambiguity suggests a third joke. Perhaps there are two universes that this is playing out in, in one of them the character is Megan, the other is not. | ||
