Luojie's 2016 cartoon captures the fall of oil prices through a roller coaster metaphor, where a barrel labeled 'OIL PRICES' hurtles down steep tracks. Arms clad in various attires—suit sleeves, keffiyeh, plaid shirt—stick out, gesturing wildly with thumbs up, pointing fingers, and a steering wheel. Exclamation points, dollar signs, stars, and hash marks fly around, emphasizing the turmoil. This image tags oil, price, fall, roller coaster, and oil producing countries, illustrating the volatile ride of global energy markets in a straightforward, humorous jab at economic instability.

Christopher Weyant's 2013 cartoon shows an IRS office where an agent smiles while offering a white t-shirt featuring a bold red target to a seated man wearing a 'Tea Party' shirt and tricorn hat. The speech bubble promises the t-shirt for early tax filing next year. Tags like IRS, Internal Revenue Service, audit, tax, Tea Party, and conservatives frame the scene. The drawing captures a straightforward setup with desk, papers, and a chart on the wall marked '2.9'. The humor lands dryly on the visible elements, poking at the interaction without delving into unseen motives.
