Four-panel comic. Panel 1: A mustached father in a green shirt tells his orange-haired son, "Son, you're 18! Now's the time to just go out and get crazy!" Panel 2: The son clutches his head, face contorted, screaming "Agh! Spiders! Spiders! They're everywhere!" Panel 3: The son smiles and says, "Heh, guess that's not what you had in mind, huh, Dad?" Panel 4: The son sits hunched and small on the floor of an empty room, surrounded by dangling spiders, quietly asking "Dad?" The joke: the dad meant partying, but the son experiences a literal spider-filled hallucinatory breakdown. Votey (a loose hand-drawn sketch): a hunched figure with a speech bubble reading "Son!", the father calling out for his son.
