4-panel comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: A parent in brown shirt and dark pants holds blue jeans while speaking to a small child in a yellow shirt and underwear, saying "I don't want to put on pants." A baby and wooden chair are visible in the background. Panel 2: The parent responds "Well, you have to" while the child asks "Why?" Panel 3: The parent explains "Because I say so. When you grow up, you can do whatever you want." Panel 4: The scene shifts to show the same child, now grown up in business attire, sitting at an office desk with a computer, papers, and office supplies, illustrating the irony of adult responsibilities versus childhood promises of freedom.

4-panel comic by War and Peas Panel 1: A man in an orange sweater sits alone on a park bench, contemplating. He says, “They say, a home is not a place but a person.” Panel 2: He continues his thought, looking reflective: “If that’s true…” Panel 3: The camera zooms out to reveal an older man with a beanie and scruffy beard sitting next to him. The first man finishes, “…I’m pretty much homeless.” Panel 4: The older man who is literally homeless, now sipping from a bottle, casually responds, “Great story, snowflake.”
