Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic and the text in it:

Panel 1:

• Setting: A bar or café with a counter in the background.
• Characters:
  • A woman with dark curly hair and glasses, wearing a red top and white collar.
  • Three men:
    • One in a green shirt, looking surprised.
    • Another with short hair in a suit, listening intently.
    • The third has medium-length hair and a suit, with a slight smirk.
• Text:
  • Woman: “Careful, man. She's a neuroscientist. You need an intellectual pickup line.”
  • Man in green shirt: “Like what?”

Panel 2:

• The woman continues speaking, while the other men listen.
• Text:
  • Woman: “I was just reading a thought experiment of Daniel Dennett's, where he discussed a game where you put a thimble in someone's blind spot, so the people around them can perceive it, but the person closest to it can’t.”
  • There’s a visual representation of her explaining; the others look interested.

Panel 3:

• A close-up of the person in a suit (man with short hair).
• Text:
  • Man in suit: “That’s fascinating.”
  • Another man (possibly the one in green) asks: “What’s it called?”

Panel 4:

• The woman and a man in the green shirt are facing each other.
• Text:
  • Woman: “And so…”
  • Man in green shirt: “Hey there, wanna play a game of ‘hide the thimble’?”

The comic utilizes a humorous exchange about intellectual conversation and social interactions involving neuroscience.
