Description
Here's the transcription of the comic:
Panel 1:
- Character 1 (a girl): "Zortran, do you ever wonder if it's all just meaningless?"
Panel 2:
- Zortran (an alien): "What's 'meaningless?'"
- Girl: "It's like… wait, really? You don't have that word? It's a big deal over here."
Panel 3:
- Zortran: "No. Is it a good word? What does it do?"
- Girl: "It's sort of like… what if you aren't important? You know… to the universe."
Panel 4:
- Zortran: "Wait… so humans have a word to refer to the idea that it'd be really sad if all of reality weren't focused on them individually?"
- Girl: "Kinda, yeah!"
Panel 5:
- Zortran: "We call that 'megalomania.'"
- Girl: "Well, you don't have to be a jerk about it."
