Description

The comic presents a graph with the title:

"A SIMPLE, QUANTIFIABLE METHOD OF NERD DETECTION:"

On the vertical axis (Y-axis), labeled "LEVEL OF TECHNICAL DETAIL GIVEN VIA OPEN-ENDED MONOLOGUE," the line indicates a rising tendency.

On the horizontal axis (X-axis), labeled "QUANTITY OF ALCOHOL CONSUMED," the line remains low at the beginning and gradually increases.

The graph features two lines:

• A red line that rises sharply, labeled "nerd."
• A blue line that stays flat and is labeled "everyone else."

This visual representation humorously suggests that as the quantity of alcohol consumed increases, the level of technical detail shared by "nerds" also increases significantly, while "everyone else" maintains a lower level of detail regardless of alcohol consumption.
