A five-panel SMBC comic. A brown-haired woman sees online that her ex got engaged just six months after their breakup, and laments that the new fiancee is a doctor, rich, and super hot while she is still alone. She sighs, and as a silhouette declares her only option is to become a nun. A caption reads 'Several years later...' In the final panel she appears in a nun's habit, leaning out of a car window to triumphantly shout at her ex and his red-haired partner on the sidewalk: 'Well guess who's married to Jesus Christ himself, Todd!' The joke is her turning becoming a nun into a petty competitive flex against her ex. Votey aftercomic: a close-up of the nun's shouting face yelling 'So suck on that!'
