Panel 1:
Son: You know what'd be awesome? A car-boat!
Father: You're driving, then you hit the ocean. BAM! Now it's a boat.
Panel 2:
Father (smiling broadly): No reason for that. Typically, it's very easy to park your car at a dock, then rent a boat. Probably a lot cheaper, too. Like even if car-boats were easy to make you'd probably still want them separate.
Panel 3:
Son (looking glum): Being an adult must be a total nightmare.
Father (deadpan): It's like being dead but you're still here.
Votey:
A handwritten note reads: "Note to self: Don't tell son about Car-Boat"

A three-panel comic. Panel 1: A young boy excitedly tells his father, "You know what'd be awesome? A car-boat! You're driving, then you hit the ocean. BAM! Now it's a boat." Panel 2: The father, smiling broadly, deflates the idea: "No reason for that. Typically, it's very easy to park your car at a dock, then rent a boat. Probably a lot cheaper, too. Like even if car-boats were easy to make you'd probably still want them separate." Panel 3: The boy looks glum and says, "Being an adult must be a total nightmare," and the father replies deadpan, "It's like being dead but you're still here." Votey: A handwritten sticky note reads, "Note to self: Don't tell son about Car-Boat," implying the father regrets crushing his son's imagination.
