A webcomic titled 'FUNTIME ACTIVITY: REBUS PUZZLES WITH NO PROPER ANSWER.' A black-haired man proudly holds up a sheet of paper bearing a rebus: a drawing of a duck, plus a wrench, plus the letter T, plus a drawing of an ankle/foot. He asks a reddish-brown-haired woman (seen from behind), 'WHAT DOES THIS SPELL?' She replies, 'IT... HUH... I GIVE UP.' He smugly answers, 'IT SAYS DUCKWRENCHTANKLE. WHAT ARE YOU, STUPID?' — the rebus has no real answer; it just spells out the literal names of its pictures mashed together. Votey: in a rough sketch, the unimpressed woman tells the man, 'This is why nobody likes you.'
