Kudos to the Australian education system. :D @Steriema: Aw, oh well - at least it was the brilliant SMBC who came up with it first, although I can't remember reading it before making my version. Actually I made mine sometime in 2008 as well (evidenced by the signature), but probably not as early as February. Either way, things like this happen all the time amongst cartoonists - and in 99.9% of the cases it's purely coincidental. Also - Dave Kellett, creator of <a href="http://www.sheldoncomics.com" rel="nofollow">Sheldon</a>, blogged about occurrences like this the other day: <a href="http://www.sheldoncomics.com/forums/sheldontalk/7189/" rel="nofollow">Read it here</a>. @Caitlin: Hah, nice!

I'm jumping a bit back and forth here, so this is an older strip, but PBF was (and still is) a huge influence on me. I can't remember if I got this idea right after seeing that strip, though. Either way, it still cracks me up, especially the hands in the last panel. Thanks, gang!

The doctor said, "Too, too, too many."
