    Couple of big misses here:

    Have you never heard of a blind spot? We are all different people with different experiences. --> fails to describe what a blind spot is. Although the meaning can be guessed by context, it’s important enough to state directly, as the woman’s ignorance of it is what causes the altercation. Here the artist should have focused on the original premise: how can you question how another person doesn’t know something, when you yourself have blind spots?

    Another big miss: the silly ending which subverts the intent of the comic and leads to people wandering off (see comments about toilet paper below) when again it was possible to highlight the information problem.

      You’re taking it too seriously. It’s a humour comic, everything before the punchline is to set up the punchline.

        Quite unlike the premise of the cartoon, right “mydoomlessaccount” ?
