A man in a business suit gestures earnestly toward a woman shown from behind, saying, "I really feel this meeting could have been an email." A caption below reads: "It was the harshest way possible to end a first date" — framing his corporate-speak brush-off as a brutal way to dump someone after a first date. Votey: a crudely drawn smiling face says, "The email would say 'I love you!'", twisting the knife by implying the affection he won't say in person.
