So, the webcomic xkcd has a certain fondness for using a count of Google results (before the comic is written) as an indicator. Accurate or not, the posting of the comic obviously affects the number of results on Google. How much? Consider the latest comic. Now, let’s cock about on Google. Number of results for “poohsticks” (as of this writing): 51,100. Number of results for “strip poohsticks”: 17,200. Which, according to the comic puts it at about n = 34%, or very, very far in the the “Frequent” box. Much more so than strip poker.

Basically, this is all a roundabout way of saying that strip poohsticks needs to become a thing.
