A four-panel comic. A gray-haired man talks to a small robot that is fixing his sink. Panel 1: The man asks, "Robot, why am I so sad?" The robot, a boxy unit with a glowing yellow light, replies, "Because humans are stupid," and its screen displays "DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB." Panel 2: The man, looking dejected, demands, "Who in the fuck automates away art before plumbing?" Panel 3: A close-up of the man's grumpy face; the robot replies, "Please let me fix your sink in peace, Uniplex-9000" (revealing the man's name is Uniplex-9000). Panel 4: The robot, perched by the sink, says, "Sorry, couldn't hear you over the thousand perfect symphonies I was mentally composing just now." The joke: the human is actually the named machine while the robot is the smug, art-making one. Votey (a single extra panel showing the robot): "I'm gonna add video just to experience extra transcendence."
