Image of classic "this is fine" comic consisting of 6 panels. Panel 1 is a dog sitting at a table in a room on fire. Panel 2 is the dog smiling and saying "This is fine." Panel 3 shows dog about to drink a cup of coffee and saying "I'm okay with the events that are unfolding currently." Panel 4 shows the dog drinking coffee as the dog's arm catches fire. Panel 5 shows the dog setting the cup back down and saying "That's okay, things are going to be okay." Panel 6 shows the dog's face melting. Gruesome, but accurate.
