Bucky is right on target more often than not, and in this case, he nailed it. His candor in this case is actually doing Rob a big favor. The problem is, Rob flat out doesn’t get it.
The joke is on Bucky. Did anyone else notice the irony in the statement’s literal implication? Which is: Taken quite literally, “the mystery is how you don’t have a girlfriend yet” hardly suggests Rob is gay, it suggests Bucky thinks Rob is God’s gift to women.

Bucky knows how to hurt a guy. Especially an awkward guy like Rob. But then, you are also not surrounded by friends and admirers, are you, Buck?

That’s not much of a mystery.

Girlfriend? When was the last time Rob went out on a date? Oh, that’s right! He never leaves the apartment! What is he, agoraphobic?

For some reason this strip never goes to the re-runs where Rob does have a date and Bucky is the reason she didn’t stick around.

That’s a pretty funny question coming from a presumably neutered cat!
