A single-panel SMBC comic set in a dim bar. A balding man in a green shirt reaches toward a woman in a yellow tank top who scowls, clearly unimpressed. He says, "Woah woah woah - when I said 'I hate all the Jews,' I didn't mean, like, YOU in particular." A caption beneath reads, "You know what? I'm just gonna stop using that pickup line altogether." The joke is a man making a disastrously offensive antisemitic comment as a failed pickup line and only now reconsidering it. Votey (aftercomic): a loose line sketch of the man's smiling face with the caption, "I've got a final solution for loneliness" - a dark pun doubling down on the Holocaust reference.
