minus-squareanachrohack@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·8 days agoI know what the marshmallow test is; I don’t get the joke in the comic. It depicts one of the kids who didn’t wait. Where’s the joke?

I glanced over the comic a couple times, and each time I saw the kid tossing the marshmallow in the air as if to catch it in his mouth.
