See the two links. The original cartoon from 1993 was the first time an Internet joke showed up in the New Yorker and it was a pretty good one, especially since it was pre-Web and not many people were using the Net.
The second one was the more recent discovery that all New Yorker cartoons can be captioned "Christ, what an asshole!" successfully. I didn't want to ruin the joke in the post but it's okay in comments ;)
