  • The third panel shows the listener asking, "Can we agree this is somehow your fault?"
  • The final panel has the speaker responding, "Yes, that feels as if it would save time."

Humor:

The humor in this comic strip comes from the absurdity of the situation and the clever wordplay used by the characters.
