Panel 1: A man in a lab coat with glasses and a green shirt and tie stands in front of a chalkboard with physics equations, holding up a finger.
Man: "So, you see, in a significantly warped space, time will proceed much faster than in a relatively non-warped area."
Panel 2: A woman with brown hair in an orange top looks on with a flat, unimpressed expression.
Panel 3: The man smiles widely.
Panel 4: The man looks at the woman and points at her. The woman is partly visible at the right.
Man: "So... when we had sex for two minutes last night-"
Man: "Only from your perspective!"
Votey:
The man (glasses, tie) grins and gestures toward the woman, who faces away from the viewer.
Man: "I'm not gonna wear a condom because... let's go with... 4-vectors."
Man: "So, you see, in a significantly warped space, time will proceed much faster than in a relatively non-warped area."

A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a smiling man in a lab coat and glasses stands before a chalkboard covered in physics equations, finger raised, lecturing: "So, you see, in a significantly warped space, time will proceed much faster than in a relatively non-warped area." Panel 2: a brown-haired woman in an orange top stares back, flat and unimpressed. Panel 3: the man grins. Panel 4: he points at the woman and says, "So... when we had sex for two minutes last night-" then quickly adds, "Only from your perspective!" The joke: he uses relativity to excuse poor sexual performance. Votey (extra panel): the same man gestures at the woman, now facing away, and says, "I'm not gonna wear a condom because... let's go with... 4-vectors" - invoking physics jargon as a flimsy excuse.
