A single-panel SMBC comic. Two people sit beside each other on a wooden dock at night under a starry sky, water below. A man with flame-like orange hair says, "Climbing. Yeah, I'm into it. Last summit was 30 football fields in height." The woman next to him replies, "Wowwww." A caption beneath the panel reads: "Conversation tip: football fields are zero centimeters tall." The joke: a football field's height (as opposed to length) is essentially nothing, so "30 football fields in height" is meaninglessly tall. The votey (aftercomic) is handwritten text in a black box: "(You can also claim to have been to space by saying 'a space' and making the 'a' sound like 'uh')" — i.e., 'uh space' instead of 'a space.'
