    Am I remembering correctly that “vive la difference” was a slogan for a makeup company in the 80s or 90s? I looked, but I can’t find it.

      I don’t recall anything like that, but possibly. I think the comic is just playing around with the phrase itself, but using frogs to make it absurd.

      Fwiw, here’s the definition for anyone unfamiliar:

      vive la difference exclamation /ˌviːv lɑː ˌdɪfəˈrɑːns/ (from French, humorous)

      ​used to show that you think it is good that there is a difference between two people or things, especially a difference between men and women
