A hand-drawn line graph. The vertical axis is labeled "DESIRE FOR SEX" and the horizontal axis is labeled "TIME." A red curve sits flat at the bottom, then spikes sharply straight up to a high peak early on, then declines gradually over time back down to flat, mimicking the shape of an orgasm's arousal curve but stretched out. Caption: "Life is an orgasm, in reverse." Votey: a glum man holds a phone to his ear, saying, "Sorry... I can't leave the house... I have to... live life in reverse."
