Panel 1: A man stands at a podium, speaking.
Speaker (man at podium): WELL, HE CRACKED NAZI CODE, HELPED CREATE THE COMPUTER, AND HAS MADE CONTRIBUTIONS TO LOGIC, MATHEMATICS AND CHEMISTRY, SO, YEAH. DON'T FIX WHAT AIN'T BROKE.
Panel 2: (silent) A man walks across a stage past a podium/box.
Panel 3: (silent) The man continues walking, now on the other side of the podium/box.
Panel 4: A bald, bearded man with glasses clears his throat, then delivers an enormously long single word.
Speaker (bearded man): *achem*
Speaker (bearded man): GAYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY YYYYYY.
Caption (below comic): Britain, 1952-- Respectively, the arguments opposed to and in favor of chemically castrating Alan Turing.
Votey:
The same bald, bearded man with glasses, mouth open, finishing his statement.
Speaker (bearded man): IN CONCLUSION. TOTALLY GAY.

A four-panel comic. Panel 1: A man at a podium says, "Well, he cracked Nazi code, helped create the computer, and has made contributions to logic, mathematics and chemistry, so, yeah. Don't fix what ain't broke." Panels 2 and 3 are nearly identical silent shots of a man walking across a dim stage past a podium. Panel 4: A bald, bearded man with glasses clears his throat (*achem*) and then says a single absurdly drawn-out word filling the entire panel: "GAYYYYYY..." repeated for dozens of lines of Y's, ending in a period. A caption reads: "Britain, 1952-- Respectively, the arguments opposed to and in favor of chemically castrating Alan Turing." The joke contrasts a reasoned list of Turing's achievements against a single, endlessly repeated homophobic slur. Votey: The same bearded man, mouth open, concludes: "In conclusion. Totally gay."
