Panel 1:
A gray-haired man in a suit, with his hand pressed to his chest in a defensive gesture, speaks to a woman seen from behind.
Man: "Oh no, I wasn't being rude! I'm just high status in our culture and thus exempted from a variety of behavioral norms."
Caption (below the panel): Anthropologists should never be allowed to become famous.
Votey:
The same man continues speaking to the woman.
Man: "In fact, my douchey behavior is proof of genius!"

A gray-haired man in a suit, hand pressed to his chest in mock innocence, talks to a woman shown from behind. He says, "Oh no, I wasn't being rude! I'm just high status in our culture and thus exempted from a variety of behavioral norms." A caption beneath reads: "Anthropologists should never be allowed to become famous." In the votey aftercomic, the same man continues, "In fact, my douchey behavior is proof of genius!" The joke: an anthropologist uses academic language about status and cultural norms to excuse himself from simply being a jerk.
