A mountain climber in a red parka and goggles stands triumphantly on a snowy nighttime peak, fist raised, delivering a grandiose speech: "Oh majesty of majesties! Oh apex of the Earth! Oh, Everest. Many have perished in pursuit of you. And yet here I stand, testament that there is no task so unlikely in its parameters that I cannot achieve it!" Below the comic, a handwritten to-do note shows two items struck through with red check marks: "Run while pooping" and "Summit Everest." Votey: another scrap of paper with a single item checked off in red: "Both" — revealing he accomplished both feats simultaneously.
