A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a smiling bald man with round glasses and a suit raises his fists and announces, "Children! My goodness, come with me if you want to see... ABSOLUTE CHAOS!" Panel 2: a tight crowd of grinning, excited children's faces. Panel 3: the man stands by a double pendulum on a stand and lectures, "And so... despite the simplicity of the double pendulum, its behavior is non-linear!" The children below him already look skeptical. Panel 4: he throws both arms up triumphantly, declaring, "Technically CHAOOOSSSSS!" while two children below stare at him with flat, bored, unimpressed expressions. The joke: the chaos he promised is just a physics demo, anticlimactic to the kids. Votey (aftercomic): a hand-drawn box of text reading, "There should be a set of numbers called the actual reals, which is just the countnig numbers up to about six" (the typo 'countnig' for 'counting' is in the original).
