A two-panel-style comic. In the main panel, a red-haired bearded man on the left excitedly holds up a small bowl of golden goo and exclaims to a bald bearded man on the right, "Oh my god. This is the most delicious substance in the universe!" The bald man flatly replies, "It's called honey." The red-haired man asks where it comes from, and the bald man answers, "Only from hives of venomous insects who live in massive swarms." A caption reads: "Thog is generally considered the first atheist." The joke is that the everyday origins of delicious food sound absurd and ominous when stated plainly, framing skepticism as the natural response. In the votey (aftercomic), a close-up shows the bald man, Thog, looking skeptical and deadpan as he adds, "Also cream comes from cow-boobs."
