Man (gray-haired, gesturing toward a baby playing by a cardboard box): Heh, babies. You get 'em a big fancy toy, and all they do is play with the box.
Panel 2:
Man (now agitated, leaning toward the baby): You have access to ALL of Shakespeare for free and you watch gameshows four hours a day!

A five-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A gray-haired man gestures toward a baby playing with a cardboard box and says, "Heh, babies. You get 'em a big fancy toy, and all they do is play with the box." Panel 2: The man, getting worked up, leans toward the baby and complains, "You have access to ALL of Shakespeare for free and you watch gameshows four hours a day!" Panel 3: The man's face contorts in red-faced fury as he clutches his chest and shouts, "I'm old! I have earned the right to make bad decisions." Panel 4: A close-up of the baby, who replies with a tiny confused, "Joo?" Panel 5: The man, still scowling, mutters, "Damn right" — having just hypocritically defended the baby's bad-decision-making by the same logic he used against it. Votey: A close-up of the baby's face with the word "cretin" scrawled in handwriting beside it.
