A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a close-up of a bearded man saying "I would do ANYTHING for my kids." Panel 2: a curly-haired child holding a tablet that reads "BUY OUR STUFF!" asks, "Dad, wanna hear me talk about YouTube videos?" Panel 3: the same man, now flat and deadpan, revises himself: "I would do MANY things for my kids." Panel 4: the man sits in weary silence. The joke: a parent's boundless love instantly downgrades to "many" things the moment the kid wants to monologue about YouTube. Votey: a handwritten note in a manic, deteriorating scrawl begins "I AM THE GREATEST FATHER IN HISTORY" and rambles about producing "limited edition," "rare" content and getting people to "subscribe," the handwriting dissolving into illegible scribbles as the father apparently loses his mind.
