Single-panel comic. Two green aliens in purple outfits stand in a futuristic gray room. One alien holds a snack and says, "I WILL NOW ENACT THE RITE OF BEGINNING A DIET BY GORGING MYSELF ON THE WORST QUALITY OF FRIED TRASH-FOODS." The other alien replies, "WOW. SO IN TUNE WITH YOUR BODY." From a glowing doorway on the right, a human man with reddish hair storms in shouting, "STOP THAT! HOW DARE YOU!" Caption beneath: "The worst thing about living among the aliens was the cultural appropriation." The joke: the aliens have adopted a very human habit (binge-eating junk food while claiming to start a diet), and the lone human is offended by them appropriating his culture's behavior. Votey: a black-and-white close-up of the same man's angry, scowling face, demanding, "FOR GOD'S SAKE SHARE." — revealing his real objection is that he wants in on the junk food.
