Best I can do is internet high five. I smacked my hand on the phone screen. You do the same.
Edit: I'm slapping the shit out of my phone screen. There are more than enough high fives to go around for all of you. Do NOT put any other part of your body to your phone screen as I ONLY consent to virtual high five and no other virtual hand activity.

Thanks for patting my head. Get scammed lmfao

Be thankful they didn't do something worse, I guess
Sorry, I intercepted it.
Kapwing! I redirected your intercept back on course.
I did that water drop thing from Kung Fu Panda 2 to strategically and majestically lead it off course once more
here you go: ✋

I have coworkers who hug on success. They'll look over at my desk and do little air pats.
Honestly the the first time had people respect that. 🙏
Well that's a rude thing to say to your... girlfriend?
Or she just isnt his girlfriend and is simply being an invasive asshole.
I think the implication is that she is his girlfriend and he just wants to break up.
Which is a bit weird, because look at that t-shirt. She's clearly marriage material.
That was how I read it at first too, but she at least implies that she is his “quirky girlfriend” depending on how you interpret it.

If Millenial, why Hate Wife-shaped?
A lot of guys do hate their girlfriends, and view them as sex dispensers and maids.
Being trans didn’t even help me escape. It really fucking sucks at the end of a 7 year old relationship to finally understand that you were there to make his peepee feel good and clean up after him while he plays vidya. Difficult for me to even believe love exists lol.
That blows. Being in a relationship has been the hardest experience of my life. I've had to step up in a lot of ways, and so has my SO. But we're both happy together and are in it for the long haul.
You deserve someone that chooses to improve themself for you!
Damn. I'm sorry this happened to you. 7 years in the fuckzone is awful.
Either she's his girlfriend and he's just a complete asshole, or she's his girlfriend and he's being a sarcastic jackass(this is the only "good" scenario), or she's a clingy type who calls herself his girlfriend even though he's not into her at all and he's either set boundaries she ignores or he just doesn't really care if she invades his space like that.
No matter what, this comic sucks.
Maybe their relationship is fueled, in part, by sarcasm and thats just part of their dynamic. By being sarcastic, he's actually demonstrated that his battery has recharged.
Except, they included his uncharged battery in most frames.
Good take. That’s the only way I can get any wholesomeness out of the comic. Otherwise it just feels awkward and bad!

Yeah, "subverting" basic human love is just depressing

This is a much better looking style than Adam Ellis’s old buzzfeed art style but I don’t know if the joke lands any better.

She makes me want to play Rift of the Necrodancer.
Breaking the mold. I like it. 😎👍
