Hm, this burger place has a couple of good reviews, but LakeSlayer7 says he got food poisoning there and everyone should try this other place down by the lake instead.

Megan and Cueball are having a conversation about social media. Megan relates a negative comment she got from a stranger about her taste in movies. The twist is that it turns out the person criticizing her was a murderer. Although this does not inherently negate his taste in movies[citation needed], it does free Megan from the burden of weighing his opinions equally to her own.

The title-text mentions the “Lake Slayer,” who is referenced in the comic. They mention that a burger joint in town is unsatisfactory, and that the reader should come to a place “by the lake” instead, which might be a plot to lure people in to be killed.

The Zodiac Killer wrote reviews of serial killer movies.

Could the Lake Slayer in this comic be a reference to the Lake Diver Killer from Umwelt? https://explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/File:umwelt_lake_diver.png --Inkling/Pendragon 162.158.106.95 17:58, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

I can't wait until the incomplete explanation template becomes incomprehensible enough to require its own explainxkcd page. 141.101.96.76 21:03, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
