3 panel comic.

1. No hair holding something shiny says "It kinda makes sense that we use gold for wedding rings."

2. No hair says: "Because a lot of the universe's gold was probably produced by R-process nucleosynthesis when pairs of neutron stars spiraled together and merged. So gold exists because two neutron stars got married."
