@bobambee: I actually cribbed this joke from a sketch on a kids' TV show spoofing those blacked-out interviews:
"Don't use my real name, Ma!"
"...And why is it so dark?"
[CLICK]
"bwAAAH!"
Sadly it's so obscure I only know it thanks to cassette copies from my Canadian contacts; the first the episodes started cropping up online was three years ago. (Stay tuned for a shout-out in a later comic!)
Oop, said a little too much. Did he fourth wall break there? (Also the wide eyed glancing over just to make sure he heard right x) )
