An SMBC comic titled "NEVER DATE A PHYSICIST." In a single panel, two people lean in nose-to-nose, on the verge of a kiss. The brown-haired person on the left says, "I will love you forever." The blue-haired person on the right, wearing round glasses, responds flatly, "Unspecified reference frame" — a physics pedantry joke, since duration depends on the frame of reference. Votey (small follow-up panel): a person with messy hair and a deadpan, unimpressed expression, with a speech bubble reading "Can we have a Newtonian relationship?" — punning on Newtonian physics versus relativity.
