A four-panel SMBC comic drawn in the style of the 1960s Batman TV show. Robin tells Batman that the Joker kidnapped Commissioner Gordon. Batman replies that he must "swear," but it's okay because in comics swear words are rendered as punctuation marks (#$@%!). Robin exclaims "Holy #$@%!" Batman agrees there's no way around it, then in the final panel delivers a long tirade made up entirely of grawlix punctuation-mark swearing. Votey panel: a block of text reading "(The weird part is he actually shouted 'I object to being censored in this manner')."
