    Hey man, this isn’t Reddit, we’re allowed to have different opinions without needing to enter into gladitorial combat.

    I’m certainly open to it being a binary joke, that’s how I read it at first, too. I really had to think how else it could be meant.

    I can believe that the Cyanide & Happiness authors would have heard of binary before, I just doubt they would expect the same from their audience. Like, the comic frequently makes penis jokes, it’s decidedly not sophisticated.

    As for autocorrect knowing he has a micropenis, well, it is a fictional world, that could be the punchline here.
    At the very least, if someone doesn’t know binary, that’s how they would probably read it and get a chuckle out of it, so I guess like someone else replied to me, maybe it’s both jokes.

      I guess the reason for 10 turning into 2 is a bit like the case in Pulp Fiction.

      Doesn’t matter why, we both realise the joke is he has a small penis.

      Good attitude. Enjoy your day, internet brethren
