Comic Description:

Panel 1: A conversation between two characters.

• The first character, a man with curly hair and a blue shirt, is saying: “AND THAT'S WHY A PERFECT WOMAN IS LIKE A PERFECT ROSE.”

• The second character, a woman with red hair wearing a green shirt, responds: “I GET THAT. I REALLY DO, BUT I THINK THIS VISUAL AID IS UNDERCUTTING YOUR METAPHOR.”

Panel 2: A close-up illustration of a rose with a face and arms, appearing animated and expressive, declaring:

• “DO ME!”

Below the rose, there is a laundry basket with a label that says “clean laundry.” The rose's stem is leading to this basket.

The comic uses humor to critique the man’s metaphorical comparison by juxtaposing a literal interpretation with the woman’s feedback.
