FoxTrot by Bill Amend for May 16, 2010

If you want to be convincing Jason, get plastic surgery to look older so people will think you’re a midget.

Quite possibly, the funniest Sunday FoxTrot of all time - at least given the mood I’[m in this evening.

At 14, my card said 23. I looked 14. Sad comment on society, the card worked most of the time.

What I thought was wacky, was the fact that he’d be stupid enough to go into bars to leave an IT gizmo. Only the complete imbeciles, who only care about partying and getting drunk, reside in bars.

What made Jason think anyone in a bar would have any concept of what an Iphone is? Much less be a tech blogger, who’d be drunk enough to think his gizmo was an Apple product.

Yeah, Jason’s insanity is two-fold this time.

(Unless the few bars I’ve been in don’t represent the majority of them. Then I guess THAT joke is on ME.)

Bar none.

Skeeterhawk: The reason Jason is talking about this is because it’s already happened TWICE. Two different Apple employees left iPhone prototypes in bars. The first time, the guy who found it sold it to Gizmodo..There’s been a huge lawsuit going on ever since.

skeeterhawk must spend all his/her time posting to online comment forums to have missed all the hubbub over the lost iPhone(s) and the lengths Apple went to in trying to et them back and punish those who had them.

No, rgtichy, invariably someone just describes the comic as if we are too stupid to read it. As in, “so, in the first panel, Jason says, ‘Can you tell….’ ”

Jason should just hang on for a few months, and he’ll have a National ID card that he can change the age on.

wow they would never notice you arent 20

I want an honorary Star Fleet Cadet ID!

hey skeeterhawk, the joke is on you.

Without a doubt, one of the funniest FoxTrot strips I’ve seen. Hilarious from start to finish. Didn’t even have to wait for the last panel to start chuckling.

This is truly the funniest Foxtrot of all times! Love the contemporary twist of the i-phone, and then Jason’s comment on apple users defending the product.

This was even better than Jason going trick or treating as the BSOD

(that’s Blue Screen Of Death for the non-tech types and skeeterhawk )

Best. Foxtrot. Ever.

Wait, his elementary school has ID cards?

I think Jason should instead put the fake prototype inside a coffee shop in Seattle, so the Microsoft people could make a Zune-phone that they would say is ‘Definitely better than the iPhone 4G’

The definition of what Apple did:

A classic…

Is this how James T. Kirk got started?

naw Kirk got started stealing cars, and going to Juvie,, then he had a bar fight,, as far as i can tell,,

21 ??? Bars ??? iPhone proto-types I can understand but all he needs to do is leave something behind in a coffee shop and the same dweebs, i.e. tech bloggers, would chaff at the bit to look it over. However, I don’t think that someone would be so stupid as to accept something like Jason is proposing as a new proto-type. But the essence of this strip is appealing in its humor. LOL

At least it should have LOOOOOONG battery life!

Hey, I’m an Apple fan boy and I would never want … well … you know that kind of looks interesting … strangely I feel an attraction to … It’s so shinny and looks … I GOT TO HAVE IT!!! WHEN IS IT COMING OUT, WHEN, WHEN?!?!?!?
