two-weeks

A doctor in a white coat holds a clipboard and pen while speaking to a seated patient, a gray-haired person in a dark red top, seen from behind. The doctor says, "It's quite a bad hangnail, Ms. Derkins. You have two weeks to live." A caption underneath reads: "Those comets that are about to hit Earth have made prognosis a lot easier." The joke is that an impending comet apocalypse means everyone, even a patient with a trivial hangnail, has the same short time left. In the votey aftercomic, a close-up of the doctor's face shows him reconsidering as he says, "Oh, wait, lost an hour. Daylight savings." — trimming his patient's remaining life by an hour due to the clock change.
