An interview scene. A smiling older bearded man in a suit holds a resume across a desk from a young red-haired applicant shown from behind. The interviewer says, "Oh, you like beetles? Wonderful! Then that's what you'll be killing for the next 50 years." A caption below reads: "Biologists are weird." The joke: a stated interest becomes the thing you spend a career destroying. Votey (aftercomic): A simply drawn, worried cartoon face labeled "ECONOMISTS" reacts with alarm to a speech bubble saying "I LIKE PEOPLE" — implying the same grim logic applied to economists.
