Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for August 04, 2024

Hmm. Is it worth upgrading? I’ll have to sleep on it.

Can’t they just be run in a continuous loop?

AI will always be there for ewe.

Was interrupted by 5 commercials whilst counting.

We are the watchdogs, of the night. We are the dream police.

So them sheeps is becomes paid service now eh. No wonders they is waks outta DARK SIDE OF HORSIE comic.

At first glance the frames appear to be copy and pasted… but there are subtle differences… Does anyone else have an opinion…?

40 winks.

The 21st Century version of counting sheep is opening up GoComics and counting the number of popup ads.

The program on Brewster’s phone has “in-nap” purchases.

It’s gotten to be just about that bad.

That is what happens with the internet plugged into your brain.

So how did sheep become the animal to count to get to sleep? Why not horses, butterflies, dolphins, or unicorns?

“One Upgrade Ad… Two Upgrade Ads… Three Upgrade Ads…”

Sort of like Photobucket, which tells you to either renew or cancel your plan, then tells you to pay $5 to enter the site to cancel.

Watch out, they are pulling the wool over your eyes!

Theme song: “There will never be another ewe”.

I only count prime numbered sheep….

Well if it didn’t happen by 40, it probably won’t happen.

A Confederate officer did that with his troops. Scared McClellan. A boy scout troop would of scared McClellan.

Whenever I see a notification demanding money for a ‘premium’ service which should be, and used to be, free/cheap, I am greatly inspired to hoist the Jolly Roger and shout “Avast, ye lubbers, and prepare to be boarded!”

Usually I just delete the app. Instead of getting the basic fee they get zero.

Does shareware dream of electric sheep?

Good to know he can count that high.

Once we are all microchipped! We could experience the joys of brain pay walls, and in mind pop up adds. Think about that while you still can. Of course, it probably won’t help you get to sleep.

“Buy our sheep counting service. Our sheep perform to the highest standard.”

“What happens to the ones who can’t keep up?”

“Oh, just a minute, the food truck arrived. Want some mutton?”

Looks like something from Futurama.

Why can’t I comment on the other cartoons? 8/5/2024 12:22 am

Given all the targeted ad programming, I wouldn’t be surprised one bit to have that dream.
