Hank, don't spray WD into your locks, you're better than that Hank
The guy is in Texas and not cooking over pecan wood. I'm making this point to show that he's ignorant. That doesn't mean dumb, it just means he doesn't know any better.
We all know you shouldn't use that on your locks these days and can easily Google why. He wasn't a technology guy and only really knew what he read or what an old guy who didn't know shit told him. He did things the way he thought was right but he had some pretty big blind spots. Maybe he didn't know about 3-in-1 oil.
Plus it was a cartoon written by people who probably didn't know any better and I'm taking both that fact and your comment far too seriously (or I'm just making an elaborate joke, that's for the reader to decide).
In case you're wondering, the correct substance is graphite powder
