love-8
Explanation
This comic is a multi-panel strip about a woman who prays to God to make her love life less boring. God replies: "On it."
Later that evening, she is on a date with a man named Alexander and impulsively declares: "Hi Alexander, I guess I love you!" The narration then spirals: "I was having dinner at this Thai restaurant with my family and suddenly I saw this convertible and I just don't understand it." The story becomes increasingly chaotic as she describes waking up with someone, getting angry, and a series of confused, intense emotional events.
The man then recounts even more chaos: "And then you topped the convertible, and your family doesn't really know you outside of work, and then you threw something at me by the locker."
Finally, she says: "So anyway, I think I'm having a stroke. Do you wanna be my date to the emergency room?" He responds: "Let me get my coat." She thanks God, and God replies: "Thank you for believing."
The comic is a satire of the "exciting love life" trope. The woman asks God to make her romantic life less boring, and God delivers -- but the excitement comes in the form of utter chaos, confusion, irrational behavior, and possibly a medical emergency. The joke is that an "interesting" love life, when actually experienced, is indistinguishable from a series of catastrophic and bewildering events. The final exchange -- thanking God while heading to the emergency room -- suggests that people who crave romantic excitement don't realize that stability and boredom are actually the preferable alternative.
