Panel 1:
First person (a bald man): Why do we restrict pornography consumption based on age?
Second person (a woman with light hair and glasses): I guess the idea is that a person who hasn't had life experience is prepared to handle the things that are grotesque or exaggerated in those films.
Panel 2:
Bald man: That's genius!
Woman: What?
Bald man: We need a law based on personal experience!
Panel 3:
Caption: LATER.
A woman: Kid, you can't watch this, you're 14.
Panel 4:
First young man: My mother and father were eaten by jackals in front of my eyes.
A man (clerk): Enjoy Assblasters 12, sir.
Votey:
A smiling man with curly hair, speech bubble: So worth it.

A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a bald man asks a woman in glasses why we restrict pornography consumption based on age; she explains the idea is that someone without life experience isn't prepared to handle the grotesque or exaggerated things in those films. Panel 2: the bald man excitedly says "That's genius! We need a law based on personal experience!" while the woman responds "What?" Panel 3, captioned LATER: a clerk tells a customer "Kid, you can't watch this, you're 14." Panel 4: a young man deadpans "My mother and father were eaten by jackals in front of my eyes," and the clerk replies "Enjoy Assblasters 12, sir." Votey: a smiling curly-haired man says "So worth it," implying he is glad his traumatic experience now qualifies him to buy the film.
