The essence of the "language" barrier between men and women is captured perfectly in this strip. This is why I love being a guy. Our conversations between men go something like this:
Male 1: Dude.
Male 2: Yo.
Male 1: Whatsup?
Male 2: Nothing.
Male 1: See ya.
Male 2: Peace.
And thus we have explained the past 10 years of our past life, work life, how the family is doing, etc.
