:I think this whole comic is a double entendre; it's a metaphor for sex. "Peeling" involves removing a thin layer, like clothes, off of something much thicker. Then in the next sentence, "pressing a lightsaber handle against things and switching it on" is like putting a penis into a vagina, which constitutes sex.* The title text is likely referring to oral sex (performed on the vulva). The difference is that oral sex does not involve biting. If Randall had used sucking instead, it would have been less subtle. | :I think this whole comic is a double entendre; it's a metaphor for sex.

| β | :And finally, what about the durations? The "peeling" lasts 5 minutes because it's not just undressing, but foreplay. And what about the hour of sex? According to the Randall's earlier comic "Fermirotica" ([https://xkcd.com/563/]), sex lasts, in general, about 30 minutes. And, back to "Career" ([https://xkcd.com/1346/]): this comic is describing a dream job. Following the metaphor, it's reasonable to assume that this dream job represents dream sex. Dream sex would be longer than average sex, to prolong the pleasure, and an hour is twice as long as 30 minutes | + | :And finally, what about the durations?

:\*The similarities between "pressing a lightsaber handle against things and switching it on" and sex are as follows. 1) "Pressing" involves pushing, as in "pushing one's penis" (not with one's hands, as with a lightsaber, but with one's pelvis). 2) There is mention of switching on a lightsaber handle. The transformation from a lightsaber handle to a switched-on lightsaber is analogous to that from a non-erect penis to an erect penis. Specifically: a) You're starting with a small version that's more convenient for storage, and transforming it into something that is capable of fulfilling the object's purpose; b) A short object is transforming into a long object; c) This transformation does not change the shape. 3) Consider the aforementioned shape. All four objects are the same shape: a long and narrow, like a tall cylinder. 4) The switched-on lightsaber performs the same action, in the comic's description, that an erect penis performs during sex: penetration. When you press a lightsaber handle against (for example) a wall and switch it on, the blade of the lightsaber goes through that wall by creating a hole, where there was no hole before. Similarly, a vagina is initially closed, but when an erect penis, like a switched-on lightsaber, is pushed into it, the act of pushing the penis into the vagina causes the labia to part, and allows the penis to travel inward like the blade of a lightsaber.
