An eight-panel SMBC comic. A woman confesses to a man named Steve that she never actually sent him nude photos -- they were just closeups of her fingers and the crook of her elbow, though taken in bedrooms and on the sofa. She reveals she has slowly trained him to be aroused exclusively by closeups of elbow crooks and knuckles. He protests 'I am not!' while holding a photo, then looks at another photo and cries out 'Get a load of THESE! O! GOD!' overcome with arousal. She concludes that he's now too sexually weird to date anyone but her: 'I made you, Steve. I made you. And now you are MINE.' The final panel, captioned 'SHORTLY,' shows the two getting married, her in a white dress with a bouquet, him in a tuxedo. Votey: a simple line drawing of a character's face shown upside-down with an empty thought bubble.
