 Title text: Can't and shouldn't. |
Explanation
In this comic, "could not reproduce" is a double entendre. Because the reported bug was that speech recognition failed on a young child's voice, the programming team attempted to have a child in order to fix the bug and get the test subject. The bug report is closed with the reason being "could not reproduce."
This reason shows up in comic 937: TornadoGuard.

It's kind of silly that they'd need to make a new kid. There are plenty of them for free in any given shopping mall on any day!

@Pennpenn: For $847.63 you can buy a child in the supermarket. Or could, in 1989. The Simpsons already did it! 173.245.53.147 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
