    Little Bobby Tables is my favorite XKCD strip of all time, and I don’t even actively work with databases.

          the joke was actually named after him. This is the Sir Robert Tableton that served as the basis of the entire joke premise.

      That whole story line of the hacker mom is wild. As far as I recall little Bobby did not inherit his mother’s skills.

        Nah, he used to work with databases but it’s really not his passion.

    I think there’s people that don’t know what xkcd is, who have heard this joke.

      Maybe people who do but haven’t as well. Like, say, around 10,000 of them.

      (In case you’re OOTL)

      Little Bobby Tables does sound like something out of a classic comedy movie

        Or one of Bob Mortimer’s childhood friends.
