A six-panel comic. A bearded man in uniform (an airport-style security agent) stands beside a dark-haired traveler. Panel 1: the agent says, "Sir, before we can let you into the terminal, please remove your sandals." Panel 2: "Now, your socks." Panel 3: "Now give me the socks," and the traveler replies uncertainly, "Thank you?" Panel 4: "Now put your sandals back on." Panel 5: "There. Now you don't look like an asshole." Panel 6: "Thank you for your service." The joke: the agent isn't doing security, he's confiscating the man's socks so he can't wear the socks-with-sandals look. Votey (aftercomic): a circular black-and-white emblem like an official seal or anti-socks-and-sandals crest, showing a bare foot in a sandal, ringed by the words "SOLIDARITY SOCKS - SANDALS."
