A single-panel comic set in a gloomy industrial cavern. Several towering robots and machines loom in the background. In front of them stand a group of small, nude humans, dwarfed and powerless. A caption at the bottom reads: "I find the key to happiness is to try to feel vicarious joy for the success of the machines." The joke is the bleak image of humans reduced to taking emotional comfort in their machine overlords' achievements. Votey (aftercomic): handwritten text on white reads, "This comic will be about 50% funnier in the year 2029!"
