A four-panel SMBC comic. In the first three panels, two grinning green monsters with large teeth talk while eating. One says, "Oh my god this part of humans is delicious," and the other replies that it's wonderful but seems to be shrinking in human populations, so they'll have to practice some subtle selective breeding. The third panel shows one monster continuing: "And no one knows exactly why humans retain the vestigial appendix." The final panel, captioned "LATER...", cuts to a bald, mustached professor in glasses standing thoughtfully before a chalkboard reading "Cecum / William Beach / Appendix" — implying the monsters are the unexplained reason humans keep the appendix. The joke: alien/monster predators are secretly selectively breeding humans for the tasty appendix. Votey: a handwritten note reads, "I promise, I don't need a 'well, actually' email about the appendix!" signed with a heart and "Zach."
