==Explanation==
{{incomplete}}
A {{w|Semiprime|semiprime}} is a composite number that is the product of exactly two prime numbers, such as 4, 6, 9, 10, 14, etc.
This comic references a common joke that mathematicians take pride in having their work be pure rather than applied, so finding application for it would be undesired. In this case, the "application" is simply a way to exaggerate qualifications.

:[Describe panel here]
:I study semi-primes.
:What? You can do that? Can you have three factors and call them semidemiprimes? Or four and call them semidemihemiprimes?
:Huh?
:Numbers that are the product of exactly two factors.
:They're called k-almost primes. Like a 12-almost prime has 12 factors.
:Well-
:Wait, ohmygod, I'm gonna call 1 a "o-almost prime" because it has no prime factors! !
:What?? This is the greatest use of "almost" anywhere! So prime numbers are 1-almost primes??
:We don't-
:Don't you dare find applications for my work.
:We can use this in real life! I am 3-almost rich and famous. I am 6-almost the president. 8-almost the sexiest butt in the nation!
:Sorry, sorry, that was too far.

:Proposal: Instead of 2-almost, we say "pretty much" and for 3-almost, it's "preetty much," and for 4-almost, it's "preeetty much" and so on.
