Panel 1:
Man with flame-like orange hair: I worry about men watching porno.
Woman: I worry we'll all get unreasonable expectations that'll ruin our sex lives.
Panel 2:
Man with orange hair: Honestly, how many women actually want to dress like a sexy octopus for the purpose of erotic hypnosis?
Panel 3:
Woman: Wait, what are you watching?
Man with orange hair: I... what? I meant, wow, unrealistic bodies or whatever.
Panel 4:
Man with orange hair: Unrealistic, like, big mammalian parts and, with, like, hair and everything.
Woman (eyes wide): We're never going to the aquarium again.
Votey:

A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: An orange-haired man and a woman talk; he says he worries about men watching porn, and she says she worries everyone will get unreasonable expectations that ruin their sex lives. Panel 2: The man, shown in profile, asks how many women actually want to dress like a sexy octopus for the purpose of erotic hypnosis. Panel 3: The woman asks, 'Wait, what are you watching?' The man backpedals: 'I... what? I meant, wow, unrealistic bodies or whatever.' Panel 4: He digs in deeper, saying 'unrealistic, like, big mammalian parts and, with, like, hair and everything,' while the woman stares wide-eyed and declares, 'We're never going to the aquarium again.' The joke: his oddly specific cover story reveals his porn taste runs to octopuses, not humans. Votey (aftercomic): A close-up of the worried orange-haired man's face with the caption, 'I'm a cephalopod lover, not a voyeur.'
