Transcript
The entire comic takes place in darkness. Every panel is mostly black, with only one or two pairs of tiny glowing eyes visible, indicating two characters speaking to each other in the dark. Speakers are not named.
Panel 1: "You can put it... ANYWHERE YOU WANT."
Panel 2: "Anywhere? What do you mean anywhere? ... ANYWHERE YOU WANT."
Panel 3: "It's not like there's 83 options back here."
Panel 4: (a single pair of eyes; no dialogue)
Panel 5: "Have you looked in a mirror before? Or read an anatomy book for children?"
Panel 6: "It's like I went to an ice cream shop with chocolate and vanilla and the clerk said 'you can have ANY FLAVOR YOU WANT.'"
Panel 7: "Okay, that'll do, I am turning on the lights."
Panel 8: "You can flip the switch to ANY SETTING YOU WANT."
Votey: A single panel in darkness with two pairs of eyes. One character says: "I'm gonna get one of those sex-bots with 83 options back there."

An eight-panel SMBC comic that takes place entirely in the dark. Each panel is almost completely black, showing only one or two pairs of tiny glowing eyes to represent two characters talking in darkness. The conversation: one character keeps insisting 'You can put it... anywhere you want,' and 'Anywhere you want.' The other is skeptical: 'Anywhere? What do you mean anywhere?' and 'It's not like there's 83 options back here.' The first replies, 'Have you looked in a mirror before? Or read an anatomy book for children? It's like I went to an ice cream shop with chocolate and vanilla and the clerk said "you can have any flavor you want."' The second character ends with: 'Okay, that'll do, I am turning on the lights,' and 'You can flip the switch to any setting you want.' The joke is that the boastful 'anywhere you want' is mocked as having only two real options, like an ice cream shop with just chocolate and vanilla. Votey (aftercomic): still in the dark with two pairs of eyes, one character says, 'I'm gonna get one of those sex-bots with 83 options back there.'
