Us older folks can do other things, but the young ones need to be connected at all times.
Have a fabulous day. 🙂
How can you do things without being connected?
Have Fraz call Technical Support. That should keep him occupied.
That is an excellent idea!
The newspaper wasn’t keeping up fast enough!
I like my information NOW!
Is this because Fraz lives on the internet? Is that the joke? Did I get it? 🙂
I don’t live ON the internet! But I’d live IN it if Chris would let me and wasn’t such a party pooper! I said pooper!
I’ve only ever seen you on the internet. That goes the same for some of my Facebook friends.
I guess that’s true. But I’ve only seen you on the internet too!
I asked ChatGPT to write you a response, Fraz. Ask an adult (Binky) to help you with the big words:
Dear reader,
I can understand how the comic strip resonated with you, as it humorously highlights our increasing dependence on the internet in our daily lives. While losing internet connectivity may seem like a trivial inconvenience to some, it can have a significant impact on the lives of others who rely on it for work, communication, and entertainment.
In today’s world, the internet has become an essential tool for almost everything, from education and healthcare to banking and e-commerce. The pandemic has further accelerated our reliance on the internet, as many of us are working and learning remotely. Therefore, it’s not surprising that losing internet connectivity can feel like the end of the world for some.
However, it’s essential to remind ourselves that there are other ways to stay connected and productive, even if the internet goes down temporarily. We can resort to offline work, read books, spend quality time with loved ones, or simply take a break from the digital world.
Overall, the comic strip serves as a gentle reminder that while the internet is a useful tool, we shouldn’t let it define our world entirely. Instead, we should learn to strike a balance between our online and offline lives and be prepared for contingencies that may disrupt our digital routines.
Best regards,
ChatGPT
That’s a lot of words! Like an English assignment!
It sounds pretty smart though. I need to use ChatGPT for my tests at school. The teacher would think I’m really smart!
Frighteningly, ChatGPT is smarter and a lot more coherent than a lot of the population.
I’ve used it to sum up books I have read. Sometimes I get to the end of a book and think that was great… now what was it about… I am very thankful this wasn’t around when I went to college.
I didn’t think it could be used for something like that. It must be difficult for teachers to know when an assignment has been generated or helped by AI.
This isn’t exactly related, but I found this song today

Definitely a Top Ten wombat song!
There are more wombat songs?!? Please tell me where to find them, i need to listen to them
There is The Wombat Shuffle on Facebook, though that one might be private. There are a few songs on this page:

I can not overstate how much positive impact this song has had on the lives of the Missouri S&T Liquid Rocket Design Team members
Wombats are very inspirational. Maybe your team could give Binky a few tips, since he’s not been too successful with his own rockets.

We are happy to help
So long as that help doesn’t result in black helicopters paying a visit
Binky will keep anything you tell him in the strictest of confidence.
How did we survive before the internet?
I’m glad I didn’t have to! I wouldn’t have!
