Main comic: A single panel. A brown-haired man in a yellow shirt and blue tie leans toward a blonde person (seen from behind) and says warmly, "You know, once I got over the occasional obnoxious outbursts, you're actually a pretty good date." Even as he speaks kindly, he points at the person and a red starburst bursts from his hand shouting "FAT!" — demonstrating the very obnoxious outburst he claims to have gotten past. Votey (aftercomic, black-and-white sketch): A handwritten caption reads "Reading this in 2015." A tired, bearded man rests his head on his hand and asks with weary hope, "The jokes get better, right?" — a self-deprecating jab at the author's early comics.
