    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

      Funnily enough, this panel is a perfect allegory for this community.

        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.
