Main comic: A blonde woman stands clutching her head with both hands, eyes screwed shut in mock anguish, performing for a man with reddish-brown hair and glasses who is seen from behind. She wails: "I'm sorry I'm so pathetic! My mom left when I was two, and I've been an indecisive wimp ever since! Oh god! I think I may start crying again! Could you hand me my pink hanky?" A caption beneath the panel reads: "I hate when Cheryl does her impression of me." The joke is that the man is narrating, embarrassed that this woman named Cheryl is doing an exaggerated, self-pitying impression of him. Votey (aftercomic): A rough hand-drawn sketch of a wide-eyed, deadpan face. A speech bubble says: "You got the voice right, but that's it!" — the man unconvincingly protesting that the impression is inaccurate apart from the voice.
