Humean Seduction

Comic by Corey Mohr.

Part 1, nine panels in a bar. Hume (red coat, wig): “STEP BACK CAMUS, LET ME SHOW YOU SOME HUMEAN SEDUCTION.” Camus: “I DON’T THINK I NEED HEL—” Hume: “JUST WATCH AND LEARN, CAMUS, WATCH AND LEARN.” Hume to three different women: “HEY BABY, HAVE I EVER TOLD YOU MY THEORY OF HOW REASON IS SLAVE TO THE PASSIONS?” Replies: “GET LOST.” / “FUCK OFF.” / “LEAVE ME ALONE.” Hume, repeating himself to the first one: “YOU ALREADY ASKED ME THAT, AND I SAID GET LOST!” Hume: “OH, SHIT, SORRY.” Camus: “I DON’T GET IT, YOU JUST APPROACH EVERY WOMAN YOU SEE UNTIL ONE OF THEM SAY YES? THIS IS YOUR BIG SECRET?” Hume: “OF COURSE.” Camus: “AND THAT EVENTUALLY WORKS?” Hume: “I MEAN…IT HASN’T WORKED SO FAR, BUT…ONE DAY I’M SURE IT WILL!” Camus: “BUT DON’T YOU WANT A REAL CONNECTION WITH SOMEONE?” / “DON’T YOU WANT TO MAKE A GENUINE LOVE AND PASSION? TO FIND SOMEONE WHO YOU CAN LOVE THEIR HEART AND ALL THAT THEY ARE?”

Part 2, eight panels. Camus: “SOMEONE WHO WHEN YOU ARE WITH THEM YOU FEEL ALIVE AND WITHOUT THEM YOU WANT TO DIE?” / “TO FIND SOMEONE WHO WHEN YOU ARE WITH THEM IT SEEMS ABSURD TO NOT BELIEVE IN ETERNITY?” Hume: “UH…NOT REALLY, NO.” Camus: “OH.” / “SO WHAT DO YOU WANT, THEN?” Hume: “I DON’T KNOW… A BLONDE, I GUESS?” Camus: “I SEE.” Hume: “SO WHAT LINE DO YOU USE TO PICK UP WOMEN?” Camus: “WHAT? I DON’T USE A LINE.” Hume: “THEN WHAT DO YOU DO?” Camus: “ARE YOU KIDDING? I’M CAMUS, THE WOMEN USE LINES ON ME.” A woman in a blue blazer: “HEY CAMUS, HAVE I EVER TOLD YOU MY THEORY OF HOW REASON IS SLAVE TO THE PASSIONS?” Camus: “NO, WHY DON’T WE GO BACK TO YOUR PLACE AND YOU CAN TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT?” She: “SOUNDS GREAT!” Last panel, the two leave together and Hume points: “HEY! THAT’S MY LINE!”
