Freedom

Title text: Image text: Sometimes I'm terrified to realize how many options other people have.

Explanation

The joke is in the image text because it is a repetition of the first line of the comic but replacing "I" with "other people".

Transcript

First Man: Sometimes I'm shocked to realize how many options I have. Second Man: Oh?

[First Man shakes his fist.]

First Man: Like, at any moment in any conversation, I could just punch the person I was talking to, and all these potentially life-changing events would unfold.

[The two men converse.]

First Man: It's only my mental rules that stop me from punching you, or stripping naked, or getting on a plane to Fiji. Sure, rules have reasons. But shouldn't you exercise that freedom at least once before you did?

<<WHAM>>

[First man is knocked down on the ground, dazed and bruised.] First Man: Okay, I should have seen that coming. Second Man: But you couldn't ! That's the beauty!
