Main comic, single panel: An anxious man with reddish-brown hair in a red shirt says, "Oh, I was feeling so anxious today I could hardly breathe." A cheerful smiling woman with dark hair beside him replies, "Wow! You're gonna have such a strong heart from all that exercise you're giving it." A caption beneath reads: "The fact that this isn't how it works is proof of God's hatred." The joke: she reframes his panic-induced racing heart as if anxiety were a workout that makes the heart stronger. Votey (aftercomic): A crudely sketched slouching figure, with a speech bubble saying, "Having to deal with that terrible posture is going to make your back so strong!" extending the same false reasoning to bad posture.
