Panel 1 (banner header): CONFESSION TIPS: SOFTEN THE BLOW WITH A PUPPY DOG GREETING CARD

A droopy-eared dog with a sad expression holds up a large white greeting card. The card's handwritten message (rendered in dog-speak, with R's substituted for L's and W's): "I'M RORRY I SREPT RIFF ROUR RADOPTED RAUGHTER" (i.e. "I'm sorry I slept with your adopted daughter"). The card is decorated with two paw prints.

Votey:
A simpler dog, drawn in a loose doodle style, says: "We had ruff sex."

An SMBC comic with a yellow banner header reading "CONFESSION TIPS: SOFTEN THE BLOW WITH A PUPPY DOG GREETING CARD." Below, a sad-eyed droopy-eared dog holds up a big white greeting card decorated with two paw prints. The handwritten card message is spelled in dog-speak (L's and W's swapped for R's): "I'M RORRY I SREPT RIFF ROUR RADOPTED RAUGHTER," meaning "I'm sorry I slept with your adopted daughter." The joke is that the cute puppy card delivers a deeply awkward confession. Votey (aftercomic): a loosely doodled dog adds, "We had ruff sex." — punning on "rough" via the dog's "ruff."
