A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A red-haired man in glasses leans toward a baby and asks, "You want some juice, buddy?" The baby happily replies, "ga!" Panel 2: The man's face turns wild-eyed and intense as he declares dramatically, "THERE IS NO JUICE! NO JUICE AT ALL!" Panel 3: A close-up of the baby's face, looking flat and unimpressed by the outburst. Panel 4: The red-haired man sits proudly at a table next to a bearded man and brags, "My baby already understands the concept of zero." The joke: the dad reframes telling his kid there's no juice as an early math lesson. Votey (aftercomic): a loose sketch of the baby's tired-looking face with the deadpan addition, "Also ennui" — implying the baby has also grasped existential weariness.
