A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A red-haired woman tells a man, "I have a fetish for people not being aroused by my fetish." Panel 2: The man replies flatly, "That's not a real fetish." Panel 3: The woman, now wide-eyed and excited by his lack of arousal, exclaims, "Do me now!" Panel 4: The man, now smiling and into it, says, "Okay nevermind, this is hot" — meaning he IS aroused now. Panel 5: The woman, instantly bored again because he's no longer un-aroused, lets out a flat "*YAWN*." The joke is the self-defeating loop: she's only turned on when others aren't, so any arousal she provokes immediately kills it. Votey (aftercomic): A crude line-drawn face in profile with flame-like, scribbly hair, captioned "Yawning is so hot."
