Panel 1:
Child (with light hair): Dad! How do I know if a girl really likes me, or just wants me for my body?
Panel 2:
Father (bearded, dark hair): Like any other binary situation: perform a test to eliminate one possibility, then accept what remains.
Panel 3:
Father: Soon, I'm coating myself in macerated worms.
Child: AAAH!
(The father is shown holding a container/jar, beginning to cover himself in worms.)
Panel 4:
Child (now appearing visibly aged/older, with longer hair): Hey! Do you still wanna discuss what kind of music we both like?
Panel 5:
Father (now covered in worms, green-tinged): Shallow.

A five-panel comic. Panel 1: a light-haired child asks their bearded dad how to know if a girl really likes him or just wants him for his body. Panel 2: the dad, in a recliner, answers that it's like any binary situation, perform a test to eliminate one possibility then accept what remains. Panel 3: the dad declares 'Soon, I'm coating myself in macerated worms,' holding a jar of worms while the child screams 'AAAH!' Panel 4: time has clearly passed, the child looks older, and asks if they still want to discuss what music they both like. Panel 5: the dad, now slimed green and covered in worms, flatly replies 'Shallow.' Votey aftercomic: a panel captioned 'EARLIER...' showing a small figure walking toward a building whose sign reads 'MACERATED WORMS INCORPORATED,' revealing where he got the worms.
