A single-panel comic. A red-haired woman embraces a brown-haired man, grinning broadly as she tells him: "I want you to know, I'm not really enjoying this. It's just that the nano-bots in my face are acting up. I was going to fix it today, but, well, it IS our anniversary." A caption beneath reads: "I hate living in the future." The joke: malfunctioning facial nano-bots are forcing her expression, and she's casually explaining it away as an everyday future inconvenience. Votey: a close-up of the same smiling woman, who says, "It's over, Ted. I never loved you. ... What? Oh, is it doing that again?" Her cheerful face contradicts the brutal words coming out of it, implying the nano-bots also hijack her speech.
