Main comic: A single panel at a party. A yellow caption banner reads "LIFE TIP: ANYTHING CAN BE CHARMING WITH THE RIGHT CHOICE OF WORDS." In the foreground, a smiling blonde woman in a red dress holds a hand to her chest and says, "Oop! I've had a few too many whiskeys. Time to play mama bird to the toilet!" Behind her a man holding a blue cup and other party guests stand in a purple-lit room. The joke: a euphemistic, oddly cheerful phrasing makes vomiting sound charming. Votey: A rough black-and-white sketch of a spiky-haired person grinning and saying "Genius!" while a bearded man looks on, riffing on how charming the awful phrasing supposedly is.
