In another 25 years, unpopped bubble wrap will be the only source of pure air left in the world. RAGBRAIvet (talk) 04:42, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

In 25 thousand years, scientists will use bubble wrap to see what the air what like today, in a similar fashion to how we use ice core samples to look at the atmosphere from thousands of years ago. 108.162.249.74 04:54, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

WD-40 is not a lubricant. 172.68.65.244 05:16, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

You're right, but in the time it took for you to post the comment, you could have just fixed it. Bischoff (talk) 07:21, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
Are you sure? Its not lube despite its penetrating powers, I'll concede to that. But why wouldn't it be a lubricant? Its an oil based product, I need more context. 172.69.170.142 07:29, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
You're right, that since it's oil based it can and sometimes is used as a short term lubricant. However it is not advisable to use it (or other penetrating oils) that way. They generally evaporate too quickly to be used long term. You'd have to constantly reapply it to moving parts. Bischoff (talk) 09:27, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Could the comic be some sort of mocking people who taste all weird stuff from wine? Or basically anyone who has a distinguished taste on [wine, whiskey, tobacco, cheese etc]? Elektrizikekswerk (talk) 08:59, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
