Yeah, Everquest should be more effective. I know it's just a stupid joke, but considering the premise of the joke is he won't need birth control because women won't want to have sex with him, it's hard to overlook the glaring problem that it's actually women won't want to have sex with him more than once. So the father is relying on a birth control technique that can only work if he actually has sex at least once, possibly without birth control because this was the "birth control talk." Yes, it's overthinking it, but it's incredibly difficult not to think about it when the flaw is right there in your face. It actually does ruin the haha moment (if indeed there really were one). If it were far enough a leap that you actually had to even think about it for a bit to realize the problem it might not spoil the joke so much, but it's just THAT glaringly obvious.
