A two-panel comic. Panel 1: A dark-haired man in a collared shirt leans toward a red-haired woman and says, "Hey, baby, wanna do a little 'horizontal gene transfer'?" Panel 2: The two are shown in bed; the woman looks skeptical and asks, "Wait... aren't horizontal gene transfers between animals usually mediated by viruses?" The man replies, "You might want to get tested" — implying she has a virus/STI. Votey: A close-up of the man's wide grinning face as he says, "Good pun, though, right?"
