grits
Original: grits on Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal
Transcript
Panel 1:
A young boy with flame-like orange hair sits at a table across from a man with brown hair, glasses, and a mustache wearing a pink/salmon shirt.
Boy: "I hate grits. They're like nothing. They're objectively pointless. They're only good if you add in a bunch of other stuff. So you pile all this other stuff on top of this trash and then you insist to people that the trash part is good."
Panel 2:
The man calmly sips from a coffee mug while reading, saying nothing.
Panel 3:
The man sets the mug down and continues reading, still silent.
Panel 4:
The man: "Boy, you're gonna hate when you find out what adult life is like."
Boy: "Jesus Christ!"
Votey:
A black-and-white sketch of the mustached man.
Man (off-panel speech bubble): "The cheese represents the pursuit of vanity!"

A four-panel SMBC comic. A young boy with flame-like orange hair complains to a mustached man in glasses and a pink shirt sitting across the table: he hates grits because they're objectively pointless and only good if you pile a bunch of other stuff on top, then insist the trash part is good. In the next two panels the man silently sips coffee and reads. In the final panel he replies, "Boy, you're gonna hate when you find out what adult life is like," and the boy exclaims, "Jesus Christ!" Votey: a rough black-and-white sketch of the mustached man with a speech bubble declaring, "The cheese represents the pursuit of vanity!"
