<p>70.31.229.149: Added Explanation. Feel free to edit.</p> <hr /> <div>{{comic<br /> | number = 1202<br /> | date = April 22, 2013<br /> | title = Girls and Boys<br /> | image = girls and boys.png<br /> | titletext = To get more knowledge<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==Explanation==<br /> <br /> This comic is based off of the popular school-yard taunt &quot;Girls go to college, to get more knowledge; boys go to Jupiter, to get more stupider&quot;, or some variation or other (which some may find ironic, depending on whether they consider 'stupider' a word or not). Here, the artist makes the comparison between boys and girls, where both go to college to gain knowledge, and presumably use that knowledge to go to Jupiter. (And gain *even more* knowledge, as the title text states rather humorously.)<br /> <br /> ==Transcript==<br /> :Girls go to college<br /> :To get more knowledge<br /> :[Megan studying at a table.]<br /> <br /> :Boys go to college<br /> :To get more knowledge<br /> :[Cueball studying at a table.]<br /> <br /> :Girls and boys<br /> :[Space launch control room.]<br /> <br /> :Go to Jupiter<br /> :[Space shuttle launch.]<br /> <br /> {{comic discussion}}<br /> [[Category:Comics featuring Ponytail]]<br /> [[Category:Comics featuring Megan]]<br /> [[Category:Comics featuring Cueball]]</div>
