A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a woman with a brown bob says "I'm pouring this one out for you, Sally." Panel 2: the woman, in a red blazer, tips out a fancy pink-and-green box of wine labeled in French, "la boîte de vin" (the box of wine). Panel 3: a glowing blue ghost rises from the spilled wine and protests, "Boxwine? You're pouring out boxwine for me?" Panel 4: the ghost adds, "You know what you were," while the woman looks down, unbothered. Votey: a simply drawn smiling face says, "This is one level better than 'le box de wine' wine." The joke: pouring one out to honor the dead, but using cheap boxed wine, dressed up with a fancy French label that's still just box wine.
