A two-panel SMBC comic. A yellow caption at the top reads: "DECEPTIVE CONVERSATION TIP: THE ARCHAIC WORD 'AWELESS,' MEANS 'FAILING TO INSPIRE AWE.'" In the main panel, a brown-haired man seen from behind says to a smiling red-haired man in a suit, "Wow! That graduation speech was absolutely aweless!" The red-haired man, not knowing the word's real meaning, beams and replies, "Thank you so much!" The joke: the compliment is secretly an insult. The votey (aftercomic), a rough black-and-white sketch of the brown-haired man smirking, has a caption reading "I was left deeply unmoved," confirming he meant the insult.
