A woman with brown hair, seen mostly from behind and smiling in profile, faces a man in a grey suit, yellow shirt, and tinted glasses who sits at a desk reading aloud from a sheet of paper with a deadpan look. His speech bubble reads: "There are two types of people: those who like the Oxford comma, morons and pedants." The line is a joke about the Oxford comma -- without one, the sentence reads as if morons and pedants are being listed as the same group of people. Votey (aftercomic): a solid black panel with the word "sor,ry" handwritten in small white letters in the lower right corner -- a comma deliberately misplaced inside the word "sorry."
