A two-panel webcomic. In the main panel, a smiling red-haired woman in a pink shirt talks to a reddish-brown-haired man seen from behind. She says, "I like to do things ironically. Like, remember when you grew a mustache because it was out of fashion?" A caption beneath the panel reads, "Shirley explains the herpes" — implying her ironic dating choices, including the man, have given her an STD. In the votey aftercomic, drawn as a rough black-and-white sketch, the same woman cheerfully holds up her wrist and says, "And look, a slap bracelet! Remember these?!", listing another retro-ironic item.
