Man: MY WIFE IS DEAD - I'M AT PEACE WITH THAT NOW, AND IN LOVE WITH YOU.

Caption (below panel): You'd think she'd have been impressed. I mean, how many people can belch an entire sentence?

A man in a green shirt holds hands across a small café table at night with a woman in a pink top, gazing at her lovingly and saying, "My wife is dead - I'm at peace with that now, and in love with you." The caption below reads: "You'd think she'd have been impressed. I mean, how many people can belch an entire sentence?" The joke: his romantic declaration was actually delivered as a single belch. Votey: a crude, intentionally ugly hand-drawn close-up of a man's face with a wobbly speech bubble saying "I LOVE YOU."
