Arguments for:

  • Mike and Matt create these cartoons.
  • There's no way you could put your brother's or your own name in a cartoon without realizing it's there, even if it's a pun (i.e. it's not a coincidence).
  • It easily could have just been "has mat?"

Arguments against:

  • It is already a hazmat joke.
  • The fact that Matt is the name of one of the Chapmans is probably just an unintended coincidence.
  • Even if it is a reference to Matt Chapman, is it really notable?

Additional comments:

  • No one seemed to care about the "Matt equals MATT!" line from 50 emails. Why is this now suddenly not a coincidence?
    • That's because "Matt = MATT!" was obviously said because Matt wrote in.
