The real questions we want to know the answer to are hard to answer - so we substitute them with questions which are easier to answer and think that we've answered the real question.

Panel 1: A woman is sitting at a table. She has a pink top and blond hair. The background is orange. She's holding a finger to her mouth as if in thought. A thought bubble in red text says: What you really want to know. A thought bubble in blue text says: What you end up asking.
Panel 2: Now the woman is sitting opposite a man. He has a green top and is reading from a sheet of paper. Red text: Do I think this surgeon is competent? Blue text: Do they speak with confidence and authority?
Panel 3: Now the woman is on a building site wearing a long coat and wellies. She's speaking to a builder in a hi-vis vest and hard hat. Red: Will it be completed on schedule? Blue: Is it on schedule now?
Panel 4: The woman is sitting at the table again. Red: Am I satisfied with my life as a whole? Blue: What is my mood right now?
