Description

Here is the transcription of the comic:

Panel 1: Person 1: "The Trojan War was pointless."

Person 2: "Why?"

Panel 2: Person 1: "There's no way Helen of Troy was that attractive."

Panel 3: Person 2: "You got, what, 500,000 Greeks back then? She's the hottest person among 500,000?"

Panel 4: Person 1: "That's like saying she's the prettiest girl in the middle third of Idaho."

Panel 5: Person 2: "In fairness, the thousand ships her face launched were pretty small by tonnage. The prettiest girl in Boise could probably get a medium-sized modern destroyer going."

Panel 6: Person 3: "My God, the future is going to have discussions like this about us, isn't it?"

Panel 7: Person 2: "That's why we need a nuclear war."
