what in the heckoslovakia is panel 16 172.71.147.216 02:18, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

I can only assume that it's from the perspective of someone inside the well looking upward toward the outside world. OmniDoom (talk) 02:23, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
It's a reference to The Ring (リング) films and books. This distorted view from the inside of the well is an iconic part of the franchise's imagery, and, in minimal-spoilers form, its appearance suggests that someone has watched the cursed tape and should now expect a visitor to arrive from that well in seven days. (Definitely a red intersection) Scorpion451 (talk) 02:52, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
more at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ring_(franchise) aside holy gosh! I was expecting to link to IMDB for like two or three movies. /aside the trailer at https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0298130/ starts with an a 1950-1990 ish USA telephone ring. It's been a while since I saw it and the ring referring to a telephone not magic ring is starting to sound familiar. SDT
which is too much detail. "Panel 16 refers to a horror film" is not enough info SDT 172.70.134.102 04:06, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

* figure that if seeing "the tape" causes imminent death, then watching "The Ring" might at least cause an annoying rash/the sniffles in the near future... and I have indeed eventually felt an itch or had a runny nose even after seeing references to The Ring. Sometimes within a couple of months!

172.70.134.100 03:58, 25 July 2024 (UTC) I'm assuming that a table would probably be best for this comic, but tbh I don't know how to make one and it's kinda late for me. 162.158.137.212 02:48, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Update: thanks to whoever made the table 141.101.109.192 03:32, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
You're welcome :) I had to look at Wikipedia's tutorial to make it - Blue in real life (talk) 05:55, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
The table parser is incredibly byzantine; good job. 172.70.215.11 07:34, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

As a note, water in power lines is actually a thing for high speed EV chargers - so much power is transferred even the cable need water cooling! Thief (talk) 12:38, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
