A six-panel SMBC comic. A smug red-haired man tells a woman he has discovered a way to instantly achieve classiness. She guesses "Hard work and generosity?" He says "Nyah" and explains: he takes plural polysyllabic words and sticks the 's' in the middle. He demonstrates: not "caterpillars" but "caters pillar," not "exercises" but "exers cise." He then addresses a waiter: "Pardon me madame, I would like to order three cheeses burger." The woman flatly says "This is stupid and you're stupid," and the man, throwing his arms wide, declares "It's time we said our goods bye, madame!" Votey: a deadpan woman with glasses says in a speech bubble "NUMBS NUT" (a mangled "numb nuts").
