AI Analysis

The comic strip, originally published in the newspaper, features a humorous exchange between two characters.

Panel 1:

• A white figure, representing a consultant, presents a report to a businessman.
• The businessman asks for the report's contents.

Panel 2:

• The consultant admits to having no insights but instead uses analogies to make the report more engaging.

Panel 3:

• The consultant compares the company's head to a hollow putty ball attacked by two pointy dust bunnies.
• The businessman responds with "Vivid, isn't it?"

Overall: The comic strip pokes fun at the tendency of consultants to use jargon and clichés to make their reports more interesting, rather than providing meaningful insights.
