Description

Here’s a transcription of the text from the comic:

Panel 1: Person 1: "You know, a lot of people obsess over youth. But, wine only gets better with time." Person 2: "That is seriously cherry-picking."

Panel 2: Person 1: "If you look at all foods, 99.99% get worse with time. Fruits, vegetables, most dairy products. Some cheeses and meats age okay, but that's only with an extraordinary amount of human intervention."

Panel 3: Person 1: "Even old wine sours eventually. In fact, if the acetobacter wins, you've basically got embalming fluid."

Panel 4: Person 1: "Let's face it - humans age a lot more like old avocados than wine, and we shouldn't suppose that we're any different."

Panel 5: Person 2: "So, what'd you get me for our anniversary?" Person 1: "I'm gonna need a mulligan here."
