[The comic shows three different ways of counting down]
One ... Two ... Three! [red X, followed by red text] Deprecated
One ... Two ... Three ... Go! [red X, followed by red text] Deprecated
[These first two both followed by a red curly bracket followed by red text:] Too easy to mix up
Three ... Two ... One ... Go! [green tickmark, followed by green text] ISO Standard
[Caption below the comic:]
If I were in charge of ISO, the first thing I'd do would be to standardize the way people count out loud before doing something in sync.

Title text:Anyone who is caught counting 'three ... two ... one ... zero ... GO!' will be punished with a lifetime of eating only ISO standard food samples.
