A single-panel SMBC comic on a green background. A man kneels with hands clasped in prayer, looking up, and asks, "God, why do bad things happen to good people?" A booming yellow speech bubble from above answers, "Because it's funny!" then continues, "So, when my my son fell off that bridge-" before dissolving into a huge bubble full of "HAHAHAHAHA" laughter. God finds human suffering hilarious and is too busy laughing to finish the anecdote. Votey: A drawing of a chocolate-chip cookie with a tiny speech bubble saying "Classic!"
