Obligatory XKCD
IMHO Franklin is one of the few who would go straight to "what is it?" without blinking.
Turns out Benjamin Franklin had it right, and it was this time traveler that caused him to flip it to the wrong direction.
While funny, this doesn't work because the time traveler told him specifically which one is negative.
Damn time travelers, ~~always~~ ~~never~~ messing things up!
Man, this one is a good one.
Always love their comics but since I don't know crap about this stuff it's amusing to see how this one is relevant to a meme. Wish I knew more but only so much I've learned so far. One day perhaps but not today.

The contributors on this site do an excellent job explaining the comics. Not really ELI5, but more ELI15.
It's okay to not understand every comic, someone else out there figured it out and explained it to us.
Very much appreciated, thank you I'll never understand everything but I'd at least like to have a bit of an idea.of what I can.
