#1102: Fastest-Growing explain
[A man with a combover, a book, and a clipboard approaches Black Hat.]
Combover: You should check us out. We’re the fastest-growing religion in the country.
Black Hat: “Fastest-growing” is such a dubious claim.
Combover: It’s true! We grew by 85% over the past year.
[In a frameless panel, Black Hat shouts to Rob, out of frame.]
Black Hat: Hey, Rob — wanna join my religion?
Rob’s off-frame voice: Sure, whatever.
[Black Hat turns back to Combover and produces a notepad and pen.]
Black Hat: Well, looks like my religion grew by 100% this year.
[Black Hat begins to walk away.]
Combover: We have 38,000 members!
Black Hat: Hope they’re all ok with second place.
