    Dunbar’s Number is the number of people who can be in a group where you know the status of everyone’s relationship to everyone else.

    It means if you live in a village of Dunbar’s Number population, and you see two randomly selected villagers interacting, you already know the context of their relationship so you can interpret what their interactions mean.

    You know if they are friends, enemies, lovers, coworkers, etc.

      Yeah, but you can only fit so much text into four panels, especially if there’s supposed to be at least a bit of a punchline. If people get curious as to what that number is and look it up or discuss it here, it’s already everything I could have hoped for.
