Discussion
Is "Oh Hi" a reference to O HAI, since he's from the Internet? 108.162.219.62 12:25, 20 May 2014 (UTC)DBrak
- If it wasn't already a rather ubiquitous greeting, maybe. -Pennpenn 108.162.250.155 03:29, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- The O HAI meme is a reference to The Room, which came out in 2003, but didn't really gain memetic status until around 2010. Since this comic was published in 2007, that seems unlikely. TV4Fun (talk) 01:59, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
There's no indication that Black Hat run out of staples *in the process* of stapling cats. Could very well be before, doing something else 162.158.229.142 10:17, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
