Need help

I need little help. Can someone explain me this picture: http://good-wallpapers.com/wallpapers/14701/bigpreview_Go%20Away,%20Arial.%20But,%20Helvetica!.jpg

What is funny with her? I'm new in typography so I don't know it.

I think it has something to do with how similar the two faces are. As I understand it, Arial was commissioned by Microsoft as a Helvetica replacement with near-identical dimensions. And who likes to be replaced, anyway?
