This comic makes no sense and presents no joke. It’s just a drawing and some words that convey a meaningless scenario that makes no attempt at word play or observation.

Now if the caption was like “Frank was displeased to discover some Nag-weed growing in his garden” that would be a (very lame) joke but as it is now it’s just complete trash.

While I agree that the joke is not very good, invasive plants are a thing and prying uncomfortably into a stranger's personal life is considered invasive, so it definitely has some sense.

This was the intended joke. But when was the last time you called a person invasive? Maybe it's a dialect thing, but I've never heard that used about a person. Nosy, nagging, annoying, that's what I use.

Ooh, that's an even better interpretation. I like that one
