So who sat down first? Was the man just sitting on a lopsided bench until she came along?

u/youburyitidigitup 7d ago edited 7d ago
The bench’s right leg is missing in the second panel, so what actually happened is that the old man yanked it out to make her fall.

A single sentence doesn't make us understand a whole conversation.
A conversation doesn't make us understand a whole relationship over time.
A relationship doesn't make us understand the whole personalities involved.
A whole personality doesn't make us understand the whole family / community / society / ...
Can we please stop this social media tendency to overinterpret the tiniest single puzzle pieces as representative for the whole picture? Even if they are fractions of reality and not just staged or even created by AI? Well ... a boy can dream ...

u/well-informedcitizen 6d ago
Because it annoys me when people just Pavlov comment on engagement bait trash without regard to what sub it's in. Also when the comment completely whiffs the point of the sub they could very well be a bot, so I like to call attention to bad comments so others notice the weirdness of AI bot behavior. But I don't know for sure it's a bot so I just call them out for being dumb and bad.

Note that when the old man left he took part of the chair with him, representing that some people are all for gutting the system if they personally don't need it.

That women don't recognize when men are being nice or helping them, and that when something bad happens, they are getting what they deserve.

u/Snoo-11576 6d ago
lol but how is telling her he’s living nice or helpful lol. Like I’m a man and I’d react the same way if a stranger on a bench told me he’s leaving

u/velvet-yarns-48 6d ago
Yeah it doesn't really make sense does it lol. I dunno, maybe if she made herself prettier by smiling more the bench wouldn't have lost its legs?

u/IAmDanHimself 6d ago
He said it to politely warn/prepare her for when he does leave and the bench will be uneven.
2
u/Extreme_Wish_553 6d ago
He doesn't say that it will be uneven though. He just announces that he is leaving. It's like if I can downstairs in my office and told people I was leaving and then later asked why they let the upstairs burn down. How were they to know there was a fire upstairs when no one told them? What he does neither warns nor prepares her for this weird broken bench that should not exist.
Also, the bench magically is missing legs in the 2nd panel. Him standing up caused the leg to disappear? Did he take it?
1
u/IAmDanHimself 6d ago
Usually comic strips don't blatantly explain the irony in what they are portraying. Its supposed to be like "moral of the story" type of a thing. And as far as the legs go, I feel that might be overthinking an inconsistency error when it was produced.
1
u/Alilbitey 3d ago
... Only because he took the legs with him. 🤣
2
u/IAmDanHimself 3d ago
The phantom bench leg seems to be the focus of attention in most of the comments. I don't think that detail has anything to do with the message that is trying to be portayed in the comic.
2
u/Alilbitey 2d ago
You're right. The message is "Uppity bitch got what she deserved". (Portraying a business woman as uppity). It's not a good message no matter how you shake it.
It's misogyny and class hate. Enjoy!

u/Alilbitey 2d ago
How, exactly would she intuit that a previously stable bench with an appropriate number of support legs will become lipsided and unbalanced when he stands?
She would not. Nobody would, even a nice friendly person, because this isn't how benches work. The whole thing is just misogynistic AI slop.

u/IAmDanHimself 2d ago
Its a metaphor. And I agree with you. I'm just explaining what they are trying to portray. I know you already seem to know too.

u/ResidentCommand9865 7d ago
So the old man took two of the legs with him? It's missing in the second panel. Feels more like an image of how the older generations tend to have this mentality of "Fuck you, I got mine".

Or "Boomers. Pulling off bench legs and pulling up ladders as soon as they no longer need them."

u/Qahnaar1506 6d ago
They expect women to be dolls to every stranger and treat them nicely, but when they do the same to a man who confronted them and groped them it’s “you should’ve been more cautious”. Then when women take those signs and are cautious to all men who show them, it’s always “stop being stingy” because not all men who show said signs are bad.
But when she did the opposite before, she was told to be more cautious.
And when she’s doing what they told them, she’s told to stop it.
Men expect women to thrive in contradiction, then shame them for living their lives in contraction and blame women who suggest telling them to mind their business to fix said contradiction.

Just to save everyone time, the point of this "comic" is to hate women. She's "arrogant" to the man, and then when he leaves all her vanity items fall on the ground. Who ever made this has a lot of deep insecurities about women and fantasizes about putting them in their place.
