Panel 1 (single panel):
An elderly man (Mr. Sanders) shouts angrily, shaking his fist, addressing two women at what is described as a PTA meeting.

Mr. Sanders: "AND ANOTHER THING! NO MORE HUMAN ANATOMY CLASSES FOR TEENAGERS! WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY WHEN I WAS A KID, AND I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE MY UTERUSES ARE!"

Two women face him. One (red hair, blue shirt) holds out a placating hand. The other (brown hair, seen from behind) sits in front of him.

Caption (below panel): "Can't we have just one PTA meeting where Mr. Sanders doesn't pull out The Jar?"

Votey:
A black-and-white drawing of a jar with a lid. A speech bubble points toward/from the jar.
Text: "IT'S HYSTERICAL"

A single-panel SMBC comic. An angry elderly man, identified in the caption as Mr. Sanders, shakes his fist and shouts at two women across a table at a PTA meeting: "AND ANOTHER THING! NO MORE HUMAN ANATOMY CLASSES FOR TEENAGERS! WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY WHEN I WAS A KID, AND I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE MY UTERUSES ARE!" One woman (red hair, blue shirt) holds up a hand to placate him; the other sits with her back to the viewer. The caption below reads: "Can't we have just one PTA meeting where Mr. Sanders doesn't pull out The Jar?" — implying his confident anatomical knowledge comes from carrying organs around in a jar. Votey (aftercomic): a rough black-and-white sketch of a lidded jar with a speech bubble saying "IT'S HYSTERICAL" — a pun on 'hysterectomy'/'hysteria' and the uterus(es) in the jar.
