fetish

A two-part webcomic about time travelers messing with history. Main comic: a single wide panel showing the interior of a futuristic time machine with green walls and a glowing yellow control console. Two figures in yellow-and-red suits with rounded helmets stand at the console. One excitedly explains: "And if you go here and give this one guy some weird fetish, 20 years later everybody thinks THEY have that fetish for the next hundred years!" A caption beneath reads: "Time travelers love visiting Freud." The joke is that the time travelers are deliberately seeding history's famous thinkers with bogus ideas. Votey (bonus panel): a simple black-and-white drawing of a bald figure at a desk (implying Aristotle), with the time traveler's speech bubble adding: "Oh! And you can go to this Aristotle guy and install any cosmology you like!" — extending the gag to show they've also been planting fake science into ancient philosophy.
