A single-panel comic set in an upscale restaurant. A tuxedoed waiter holding a bottle of wine leans toward a seated woman and says: "Good evening, Madame. A gentleman who wishes to remain anonymous sends you this glass of wine and compliments on your apparent pride in your haircut that really isn't ideal for your shape of head." A caption reads: "Future Social Trend #271812: Platonic Negging." The joke is a wine-and-compliment gesture that's actually a backhanded insult about her haircut, framed as a non-romantic version of pickup-artist 'negging.' Votey: a hand-drawn black-and-white close-up of the woman looking annoyed, saying, "Tell him I am passionately yet chastely pissed."
