A two-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A brown-haired woman in a purple shirt delivers a long, clinical pickup line to a red-haired man shown in foreground profile: "After we have sex, I will raise the child on a high nutrition diet without your help, thereby freeing you to impregnate other females. I will tell the other females you were a caring mate, thus obviating the social cost you might pay for being an absent father. Now, enjoy the fact that my waist to hip ratio is 0.7. ...baby." Panel 2: The red-haired man faces forward, looking stunned, and says "Mother of God." Caption below: "Evolutionary psychologists have the best pickup lines." Votey (aftercomic): A crudely sketched woman rests her face on her hand and adds, "Also boobs."
