A four-panel comic in a therapist's office. Panel 1: A young man with red hair lies on a couch and tells the doctor, "Doc, I need your help. I've got impostor syndrome." Panel 2: He continues, "All the people around me are morons and losers! I try to fit in, but I'm just really smart and attractive and I'm worried they're going to find out and not accept me." Panel 3: The grey-haired doctor, holding a clipboard, replies flatly, "That's not impostor syndrome. That's narcissism." The patient says, "Dammit." Panel 4: A close-up of the patient's smug face as he says, "I'm probably great at that too." Votey (aftercomic): A simple line drawing of the doctor's face, who sighs, "Boy, kids are a bunch of numbnutses."
