A three-panel comic. Panel 1: A woman with dark bobbed hair, seen up close, with a faint smile; a speech bubble (from her) reads, "So, I went massively in debt to build a machine that generates holographic numbers and equations whenever I wish to appear thoughtful." Behind the characters glows a dark holographic field filled with floating math equations and symbols. Panel 2: A man with curly red-orange hair and round glasses looks down pensively and asks, "Was that a good use of money?" Panel 3: The same man, now wide-eyed and earnest, answers his own question: "Yes. A thousand times yes." The joke: a clearly pointless, expensive vanity machine that just makes you look smart is enthusiastically declared completely worth it. Votey (a single hand-lettered panel): "For the record, I am willing to pay any amount of money for this to be possible, even in stupid form."
