A comic single panel: an orange-haired boy in a red shirt, seen from behind, points accusingly at a shocked brown-haired man in a green sweater (his dad), with a framed fish picture on the wall behind them. The boy's speech bubble reads a meaningless squiggly invented symbol followed by 'YOU, DAD!' A caption explains that the squiggle is the symbol for the most offensive sound in any language—you've never heard it, but if you did you'd be so horrified you'd lose all ability to think or move—then says 'You mother [squiggle]er.' Votey: a large hand-drawn version of the same squiggle labeled 'pronunciation guide: /fʌk/', revealing the unspeakable sound is just the word 'fuck.'
