 Title text: Did you know they can actually physically throw you out of SIGGRAPH? |
Explanation

This is one of 52 incomplete explanations: Please help by editing it! |
The expression "bear with me a moment" usually implies that what you are talking about is not random-the connection is to be explained later. This is the opposite of Cueball's case- at his convention (?) he is showing random slides, which have no connection.
The title text refers to SIGGRAPH, an annual computer graphics conference held since 1974.
Transcript
- Cueball: That chart explained the quantum hall effect. Now, if you'll bear with me a moment, this next graph shows rainfall over the amazon basin...
- If you keep saying "bear with me a moment" people will take a while to figure out that you're just showing them random slides.

I believe that the title text actually implies that the conference in the comic is SIGGRAPH. 184.41.49.246 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
And what? The organization and/or the venue the convention is being held in haven't hired security guards who ARE able to throw you out?121.222.232.156 07:45, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
The conference in the comic is SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group in Graphics). Cueball/Randall has taken the name to mean that the conference audience would be interested in graphs. 141.101.98.46 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
"It is said" that he is banned from SIGGRAPH, and this comic provides all the additional evidence necessary to infer he was physically removed? I didn't think the purpose of this wiki was to spread damaging rumors. Gmcgath (talk) 11:49, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
Doesn't the title text say that Cueball was physically thrown out of SIGGRAPH? Shouldn't the explanation explain that? 625571b7-aa66-4f98-ac5c-92464cfb4ed8 (talk) 05:57, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- You're right, we don't need to infer this. And the "very implausible" possibility is nonsense.--Dgbrt (talk) 15:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
