Being a genius who is trained in field of personality reading, I can tell when people are trying too hard to sound informed or intelligent and I can, also, tell when people are just being themselves. HikaruYami is just being himself. Yes, it's a touch condescending, but if you are going to be all angsty about it, then maybe you are just having a hard time keeping up with him/her. He's not trying to validate anything except his point.

I took the time to read all this, so I had to comment it!I'm saving this strip to a presentation to make a point about "stupit participation".
Some people just have to urge to be able to say they participate on a result of other people's work, the general tip for it is: "Put something so obvious in your material that you know what change this person will do, so you'll be controling the final result and delivering what you planned the same time you make everybody happy."
In the strip, Wally is taking it to an extreme as the boss, and the joke is all about the extreme, but this is also a great idea if you work with someone that resembles PHB.

HikaruYami: Like thinking you're a genius? You're more than welcome to look at the joke any way you want, but you don't need to validate yourself by touting how "smart" you are, trying to prove why everyone around you is wrong.I have to agree with Darkwarrior completely on this one, myself.
And for the record, white is not the absence of color. Black is the true absence. In the case of a palette of colors such as paint, white is seen as the absence because of the color of the paper. If the paper were orange, then orange would be the same lack of color. Any of this is moot, though. We're not exactly talking literal meanings here.
And these comics that provoke such long-winded responses always scare me... Especially when I join in. I really deserve a down-ranking after this post... O.o
