Comic Strip Title: "Bags of Crud"

Summary:

The comic strip revolves around a conversation between two characters in an office setting. The first character expresses skepticism about the value of their stock options, describing them as "worth a fortune now, you miserable bag of crud." The second character responds by asking if they're "back down to worthless," implying that the stock options have lost value.
