    I’m serious it seems I’m too stupid for these comics. I get like one in 10 jokes at best…

      There’s no real pun or anything. It’s just joking that even for the simplest topics, there’s always a guy with questions.

      Don’t overthink these, there’s no hidden joke or anything

          To be fair there wasn’t a hidden joke there either lol. Gary Larson himself admits his mistake in that strip was making the “Cow Tools” look somewhat like regular tools. People read too much into it trying to find the “hidden meaning” when he didn’t mean there to be one. It was supposed to just be an absurdist panel.
