Explanation
This single-panel comic presents a mock "fun fact" claiming that "all baby anecdotes begin the same way." It shows a group of babies at what appears to be a casual gathering, with one baby confidently telling a story that starts: "So there I was -- waist deep in vagina."
The joke is a simple anatomical observation reframed as crude bar-story bravado. Since every person's life literally begins with being born (typically through the birth canal), every baby's first "anecdote" would technically begin with being immersed in female anatomy. The humor comes from the contrast between the innocence of babies and the raunchy, boastful tone of the narration, which sounds like the opening of a macho barroom story. The babies are drawn socializing like adults at a party, complete with confident body language and an audience of fellow babies, amplifying the absurdity.
