[the comic shows three different ways of counting down, with red crosses next to the first 2 (1, 2, 3, & 1,2, 3, GO!, with 'deprecated' in red ink next to it. There also is a } sign next to the first 2, saying them as 'too easy to mix up'. The last one (3, 2, 1, GO!) is marked with a green tick, with 'ISO standard, next to the tick.] ]Caption below the comic:] If I were in charge of ISO, the first thing I would 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.
