the-first-visit

A four-panel-style SMBC comic. The main panel: a top caption reads "Sometimes I worry that the first aliens who visit us will land on a farm." Below, several green-skinned, large-eyed aliens stand in a corridor; one of them, in a speech bubble, says: "Their main occupation is cultivating birds with enormous enormous breasts" — an alien's mangled description of poultry farming (chickens bred for large breast meat). The votey (aftercomic, in simple black-and-white line art): one big-eyed alien asks "Is it a sex thing?" and another alien replies, "I mean... how else do you explain it?" The joke is that the aliens assume humans breeding fat-breasted birds must be sexually motivated rather than for food.
