Can someone explain this one. I just can't seem to grasp the arcane intellect behind it.

I guess the reference is so subtle, I didn't get it. Captain Obvious to the rescue, please?
Well, the cat is name Geohot...

And each panel is a stab at the PS3 hacker of that name, with parallels to the news articles about him.
Dig up news about the hacker named Geohot, and a lot of these will make a lot more sense.

Edit: Also, beware the ills of unnoticed sarcasm. ;3

Note to self, Sarcasm doesn't translate well into digital media.

No it doesn't.
Not that I missed it completely, but it's ambiguous. ;p

Ah so that is where Erin got her pet that turns up in every frame with her in, in the other comics? (note: I'm still not saying "her rat")

Also you consistently make me laugh each week, thank you!

I guess being a nerd poster boy for the next 5 years, as a long, drawn-out and tiresome court case drags out and consumes every facet of his life, just didn't appeal to him that much and he figured he had better things to do than be a symbol for other people to senslessly idolize.

Then again...maybe he reaaaaally shouldn't have been as vocal about it when it all started to begin with if he wasn't actually going to follow up on his boasts. So I can't say he didn't earn some of this 'subtleness' heheh. But hey...if he did indeed donate the funds he recieved from people, as was said,...he's alright in my book.

Since the animal in the display on the last panel looks like her fancy rat , i am guessing this happened in her past(so you are probably right).

Also how bad is it when the first thing i notice in panel 2 is her tatoo
(fun comic as always)
