OH! The play of signifiers! As one of the 1872.6 people on earth who would both a) understand the comic and b) think its funny (obviously (b) narrows the pack a bit)I applaud this richly differential aufhebung.
I would translate it, but translation is either impossible (Derrida) or underdetermined (Quine). Instead I'll give a non-cognitivist reply to the original comic: Ha Ha Ha
But honestly--Paul De Monster for De Man... too rich!
