A man with brown hair in a yellow shirt stands at a dim, purple-lit party, gesturing as he addresses the people gathered around him. His speech bubble reads: 'HEY, I GOT ONE - WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE SO BORING?' A caption beneath the panel reads: 'The riddling party comes to an abrupt halt.' The joke is that he has framed an insult as if it were the next riddle in a riddle-telling game. Votey: A simply-drawn woman with a worried, uneasy expression answers his question earnestly, saying 'Mostly environmental factors.'
