::I guess you mean the third with Megan being the first, but it is anyway Science Girl and had been corrected when I came here. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 12:59, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
  
 
Is it possible that the title-text is referring to the disease spread via telephones (and their lack of sanitisers) in the Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy? [[Special:Contributions/162.158.159.128|162.158.159.128]] 10:15, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

:No!!! ;-) Nothing with telephones here --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 13:04, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
  
 
Wasn't there a comic in the same vein of "can't wait to do [ridiculous thing] once vaccinated" a while back? Might be worth a mention. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.74.239|162.158.74.239]] 10:18, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

To be honest, I wish they had still recommended masks. For most groups, wearing them is no more than an inconvenience and it's always better to be cautious. Also- Where did this habit of linking to other comics come from? I ''like'' it.--[[User:Char Latte49|Char Latte49]] ([[User talk:Char Latte49|talk]]) 16:07, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Do we really need a citation for the fact that riding a bicycle down the stairs is dangerous? [[Special:Contributions/162.158.62.229|162.158.62.229]] 16:52, 9 March 2021 (UTC) 67.249.27.202

:That's how we use {{Citation needed}} around here. <span style="font-family:serif">[[User:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#00BFFF">bubblegum</span>]]-[[User_talk:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#BF7FFF">talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Bubblegum|<span style="color:#FF7FFF">contribs</span>]]</span> <span style="font-family:serif">17:06, 9 March 2021 (UTC)</span>
 
::We do? Do you have a citation for that? --[[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.218|141.101.98.218]] 10:42, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
::: The Citation needed tag is on this page in most cases{{Citation needed}} indeed used for things that are rather obvious{{Citation needed}} or common sense{{Citation needed}} for humorous effect{{Citation needed}} than for things that really needed a citattion{{Citation needed}}. This is due to the fact{{Citation needed}} that in most cases{{Citation needed}} things that really need a citation have one already added by the one who added the thing that needs citation{{Citation needed}}. There's no citation for that{{Citation needed}}. [[User:Elektrizikekswerk|Elektrizikekswerk]] ([[User talk:Elektrizikekswerk|talk]]) 11:22, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
::::No it should not be overused, and basically only when there really is use for a citation. Removes them often! ;-) like twice in this explanation! --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 13:04, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
:::::But that's basically the point of the meme: these are things which shouldn't *need* a citation. It's based on how Randal used them in his first book. I believe one of the references was equivalent to "the sun is very hot{{Citation needed}}." If that isn't gratuitous, I don't know what is. [[User:Cwallenpoole|Cwallenpoole]] ([[User talk:Cwallenpoole|talk]]) 14:07, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 
:::::I feel a sudden urge to look through every one of your edits and undo them now.
 
:::::Basically, we (and Randall in what-if) use {{Citation needed}} if and only if there is no question about adding one. If we <i>really</i> need a citation, we have a talk page for that. <span style="font-family:serif">[[User:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#00BFFF">bubblegum</span>]]-[[User_talk:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#BF7FFF">talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Bubblegum|<span style="color:#FF7FFF">contribs</span>]]</span> <span style="font-family:serif">17:45, 10 March 2021 (UTC)</span>
 
 
huh! the most recent comic doesn't have an incomplete tag! cool! also the title text is pretty much exactly like that one tumblr prediction of 2021 memes. Poggers [[Special:Contributions/162.158.62.121|162.158.62.121]] 18:18, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Bumpf
 
 
"Doctor, will I be able to play piano after the surgery?" "Certainly, your hands will be fully functional when we're done." "Great, because I couldn't play the piano before"[[Special:Contributions/108.162.237.84|108.162.237.84]] 21:07, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 
:I actually did this joke once, when I was being operated on my hand :-D. Luckily I could have played piano again, but I still haven't learned. ;-) --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 13:04, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
