    I read it as

    1-Left returns
    2-Right is just about 2 return 3-I assume right has returned and not only did left fail to adjust its Y properly to return, but somehow has moved along the X axis…

    Not sure what’s going on…

      Lmao. The joke of this comic is that a ‘pong’ comic is really inane. The ball goes back and forth, and then one of the paddles misses. The exclamation point is cute though.

        I’m definitely over thinking it, but I would think a sentient paddle would be very good at playing pong, and would only miss because it couldn’t get there in time and also that it wouldn’t be surprised by that mathematical inevitability.

        Your thought did occur to me, but the framing really needs to stay stable.

    Would this one work better if the first two cells were flipped vertically? The angles don’t line up without extra cells in the middle
