A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A man sits in a dark room staring at a screen; a green snake-like creature pokes its head around the doorway and the man shouts "OH MY GOD WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING?!" Panel 2: The green snake creature protests, "IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE! IT'S A PICTORIAL REPRESENTATION OF THE ETERNAL UNITY BETWEEN CREATION AND DESTRUCTION!" Panel 3: An angry close-up of the man, eyes narrowed, snapping "DON'T LIE TO ME, JIMMY! IT'S SICK! SICK!" Panel 4: A tablet displays an image of an ouroboros (a snake eating its own tail) labeled "Ouroboros / The ouroboros is an ancient..." The joke treats the mythological snake-eating-its-tail image as if it were shameful pornography the man caught the snake watching. Votey (aftercomic): A smug close-up of the green snake with eyes closed as the man demands off-panel, "NOW TELL ME THE WEBSITE SO I CAN BE SURE TO AVOID IT!" implying he secretly wants the address for himself.
