Here’s a transcription of the text from the comic:
Panel 1:
- Character 1: "Hey! It's your brain. Remember that one guy you know from a while back who's doing better than you?"
Panel 2:
- Character 2: "So what?! Lots of people are. And on the whole, I've got it really good. So switch to some other thought."
Panel 3:
- Character 2: "No can do. I evolved in a society with no tribes over a hundred members. So, I conceptualize all people you know as local competitors who have better luck than you."

- Character 1: "I wonder if his brain does the same thing."
- Character 2: "With his superior genetics? I doubt it."
