Anti-Social Media

I was originally gonna draw a cat with its head shoved through a piece of bread to represent an internet god but that was a little too tricky to convey. You just get a cat instead.

Random nonsense three days a week
Is it funny if it’s true?
Is it funny because it’s true?
Do I really want to crash the party on this one?
Meanwhile, ’tis great action pose in the second panel. That’s the most dancer-like bug since … Gazelle Bug [“Survival of the Fastest”, 8 July 2015]? (Which is not, in turn, Bugazelle [“You Say You Want an Evolution”, 14 July 2016].)
(Sigh. I actually know those dates and titles. Internet Cat God help me.)
BD – I was about to state the same thing 🙂
By the power of Numb-skull!
The internet is made of cats, after all.
Cats and porn. There is nothing else.
And porn of cats if you go to the right places!
But porn only exists because cats allow it.
Not only did we not have social media when I was growing up, we didn’t even have colored television! I think we (as a “social” collective) were doing fine until bulletin boards came along, followed by the current social media; and, then things started to go downhill rapidly. So now I am not “on” any of the highly-pushed social media sites…except the big “Y”, but I very rarely read any of the comments! I’m anti-social media, too!
The computer monitors are wrong. They should be big ass CRTs, although I understand they would take the whole panel space.
So is this comic strip cats or porn?
The comic seems to have disappeared…
Same here, and thanks to you I’m ((almost) sure it’s not my browser that’s the problem…
Actually, it IS (sort of) a browser’s problem, more specifically an ad blocker problem.
The string “-social-media-” is making the image get caught as an ad element. Either disable your blocker (on this page, during the session, on bugmartini, etc) or use another browser without the ad blocker installed, or also open the image directly:

Thanks for the link. Weird how it’s the only comic that has been blocked so far.
It’s because “-social-media-” is actually part of the link name, but with caps.
Well I’m certainly not using “social media” in a title again!
Hi Adam, love the new layout. Finally a webcomic that gets that we need it bigger because we are going blind from reading too many webcomics with our faces too close to the screen.
That being said the bright Red “Buy this Comic” button immediately draws the eye away from the comic, perhaps change it to a light blue? or maybe make it pop up red like the arrow keys pop up yellow when you hover over them? Just a suggestion…
For some reason, this comic and this comic only won’t show up for me. Weird…
Ok, now it’s fixed. Sorry to bug you.
I have whacked myself in the fdace with a sword. More embarisingly, I chipped a tooth whacking melt in the trace with a shield…
