The Skeleton Appears

MAN WOMAN WHITE BLACK POOR RICH ASIAN THE SKELETON APPEARS

A grid shows identical skulls labeled “MAN,” “WOMAN,” “WHITE,” “BLACK,” “POOR,” “RICH,” and “ASIAN,” followed by a fiery skeleton labeled “THE SKELETON APPEARS.” The joke is that despite different human categories and social statuses, everyone ultimately shares the same fate: death; it is used as a darkly humorous reaction about mortality and equality.
