- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Given the setting of this comic (Some time after 2001), wouldn't they have already known what happened to the WTC? And dude is using a corded, residential phone, so it couldn't have been that long after it 9/11...
I don't understand this weird Lemmy fascination with over-analyzing and breaking down shitposty jokes.
I use Arch, btw
I am deeply sorry for upsetting you with my observations
I said I didn't understand it, not that I was upset over it but okay.
The corded phone is my favourite part :P
I imagine, it's part of the joke, that the phone looks old. Like, if the 50s called, it would have been a rotary phone...
