A single-panel comic depicting an animatronic dark-ride attraction. A small singing figure sits at a computer desk with one hand raised, singing (music notes around it): "This really isn't where I wanted to be at age 40!" Behind it, a larger animatronic man in a suit and tie, also with a hand raised, sings back: "Get back to work you idiot!" In the foreground a man and woman ride past in a boat, watching. The caption reads: "In 2011, in a bid to appeal more to adult audiences, Disneyland replaces 'It's a Small World' with 'It's a Cold And Unforgiving Hell.'" Votey aftercomic: titled "Reading this in 2015:", a glum bearded man rests his face on his hand and says, "But I was so sure of that prediction." The joke is the author's 2005 prediction for 2011 never came true.
