Not really related to this comic, but: some years ago, I heard a British comic tell a joke about British humility, or lack of same. He said they had courses designed to teach humility, and that one of the exercises was to go to a drug store and find the condom display. The student was to then hold up a pack of condoms and loudly ask an employee, preferably at the far end of the store: “Excuse me! These condoms are much too large. Would you have anything smaller?”

I can understand his confusion. Now, if it was stated as a “thing-a-ma-bob”, that would clear it right up… ☺

Affirmative action? Really? I’m seething over this one. Women do read your work you know.
