Helen, Sweetheart of the Internet: "See God, Helen." Although, really, it's "hear God, Helen", but why let reality interfere with a good line? (Albeit only if you've seen "John from Cincinnati".) (New Helen! Wheee!) (No, that strip isn't new. This one and the next three are. I'm guessing that, given that the sabbatical notice hasn't been removed from the site, that this is going to be an irregular thing. But still.)
And a very good question, too.
Strangely, my mother never said anything like this when I was acting up at the holidays. But would it have worked more than once? That's the question.
You know, this would work better if it were about Bill Gates, Vista and Office 2007. (We've just been threatened with a compulsory upgrade to Office 2007, and told that if we're at all used to the way Office works now, we will be in for a terribly unpleasant time. I'm so looking forward to this.)
Somehow, I just don't think Pavlovian conditioning works quite like this. (The payoff comes six strips later. Or rather, the "payload".)

You lucky boy! I am kind of grateful Office 2007 isn't available for the Mac yet. I'm sure there are people out there who like it (probably all in Redmond), but I haven't met any yet.
