A four-panel comic of a man and woman in bed together. Panel 1: the man asks, "Before we start... are you familiar with the concept of shrinkflation?" Panel 2: the woman, facing away, replies, "The idea that producers, rather than raising the unit price of a good, keep the price the same while giving the buyer less?" Panel 3: the man, looking pleased, says "Bingo." Panel 4: the woman asks "Where is this going?" and the man answers, "Prepare to enjoy the same unit quantity of sex as usual" -- the joke being he's warning her she'll get less than expected for the same effort. Votey (aftercomic): a speech bubble on a black background reads, "The world bank is to blame for this lack of foreplay."
