A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A balding doctor in a white coat sits holding a chart and tells a worried young man in a green shirt, "I'm so sorry, there's an inoperable tumor here, under..." (tiny caption reads GLOBALNODUS). Panel 2: The young man asks, "Under where?" Panel 3: The doctor grins triumphantly with eyes closed: "Made you say underwear!" Panel 4: The doctor, smiling and patting the patient's shoulder, says, "You have two weeks left to appreciate this joke." The joke is the doctor delivering a terminal diagnosis only as a setup for the childish 'underwear' wordplay gag. Votey: A roughly hand-drawn close-up of a man's startled face saying "What?!" while a speech bubble replies "Chickenbutt!", echoing the same say-a-word prank format.
