Ha, well, thank you for giving me the benefit of the doubt. But I am 32 and hopeless when it comes to following popular culture. I was probably just focusing my attention on something else. I have a solid track record of not noticing stuff. So the nuance added to xkcd 1053 by this story is that the average value of ten thousand per day is just an average :)
(And another nuance is that I am not in the US and so also not part of the ten thousand per day average.)
