    Notice how the “friends” are completely dismissive of the hand? If they actually thought it was cause for concern, that would be an improvement.

      We don’t know how long this has been going on. If it’s been years and years of this, I get it.

        If encouraging him to see a doctor were something they were doing, the comic would have shown that.

            And it’s heavily implied it was brushed off before as well. No “I’ve tried to help you,” but rather “It’s not a big deal, get over it.”

              Well obviously the comic has that as the point, even though very similar situations have people who have tried to help but have been brushed off

                Sure, but that’s not this situation. First they have to actually care to get to that point.
