Title: KNOW YOUR BODY LANGUAGE

The comic is a four-panel chart, each panel showing a headless torso of a woman in a yellow tank top and grey-blue jeans, demonstrating a different posture, with a caption beneath.

Panel 1 (top left): The woman stands with both hands clasped together low in front of her body, shoulders relaxed.
Caption: "I'm interested in you."

Panel 2 (top right): The woman stands with her arms crossed over her chest.
Caption: "I'm not interested in you."

Panel 3 (bottom left): The woman stands with both arms hanging down at her sides.
Caption: "Let's just be friends."

Panel 4 (bottom right): The woman holds up a garden fork / pitchfork-style hand tool in her fist, brandishing it.
Caption: "STOP STARING AT MY CHEST YOU PIECE OF SHIT."

Votey:
A close-up portrait of a woman's face inside a teal square framed by a thick black border, as if a profile photo or icon. She has brown shoulder-length hair and glasses (lenses shown as blank white). Her expression is angry and glaring, brows furrowed, mouth turned down in a scowl. (No text.)

A webcomic chart titled "KNOW YOUR BODY LANGUAGE" with four panels, each showing the headless torso of a woman in a yellow tank top and grey-blue jeans in a different pose. Panel 1: hands clasped low in front of her, captioned "I'm interested in you." Panel 2: arms crossed over her chest, captioned "I'm not interested in you." Panel 3: arms relaxed at her sides, captioned "Let's just be friends." Panel 4: she brandishes a garden fork in her fist, captioned "STOP STARING AT MY CHEST YOU PIECE OF SHIT." The joke escalates a gentle body-language guide into furious threat. Votey: a close-up portrait icon of a woman with brown hair and glasses inside a teal square, glaring with a furious, scowling expression.
