Looking for an old web comic about cavemen, sex, and the first word....

Hoping someone will remember this. Maybe 5 - 10 years ago I recall seeing (I believe on Metafilter) a beautifully done web comic. It was a sidescrolling format, with lots of really cutting edge (at the time) dhtml. The story followed a group of early humans... one of them eats some psychedelic mushrooms...the most memorable scene is there are two of these hominids having sex and the female has this big word balloon that says "GOOD" (or possibly "YES"?) coming from her mouth.
Does anyone out there recall this?
Best answer: The First Word!. I asked the exact same AskMe a few years ago. It's a memorable comic.

It's kind of amazing that there are two wordless sidescrolling comics with strong, unusual aesthetics on the topic of ancient humans, psychoactive drugs, and sex.

Is anyone else having trouble seeing the comic on a mobile? My Android phone just shows me a blank page! I am super intrigued! (Maybe I just have to wait til I get home.. and then actually remember I was supposed to chase it down from there..)
