A single-panel comic with the caption: "What if people were still named for their parents' job?" Three people stand together. A blonde woman gestures and says, "I'm Alexandra Restauranteur!" A dark-haired boy with closed eyes says, "I'm Vijay Soybean-Options-Trader." A wide-eyed man with black hair says, "I'm Jason Improved-Lube-Patent-Royalties-Receiver." The joke is that occupational surnames have become absurdly modern and specific. Votey: a heraldic coat-of-arms shield split in two halves, the left teal half showing a red sausage and the right blue-gray half showing a mallet, mock-formalizing the silly modern "trades."
