A two-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a nervous soldier in a green helmet crouches in a trench, holding a paintball gun and peeking over the edge, as a blank yellow leaflet drifts down beside him. Panel 2: the soldier looks down at the leaflet, which now reads "WHILE YOU FIGHT, YOUR SWEETHEART SMOOCHES OTHERS!" above a drawing of two people leaning in to kiss. The caption below reads: "My favorite paintball tactic is demoralizing leaflet propaganda." The joke imagines casual paintball matches escalated into psychological warfare with propaganda leaflets. Votey (aftercomic): a hand-drawn frame with the text "(I AM AVAILABLE FOR HIRE AND WILL SHOW NO MERCY)," the narrator offering their propaganda services in deadpan.
