Hey, Frazz, she’s saying that she’s been having a rough time, and used a metaphor. She wasn’t asking for a speech about TV, in fact she wasn’t talking about TV at all.
Typical sermon from Frazz that‘s off topic. With 1500 channels, you can waste an afternoon without finding anything to watch. Back when I had three choices, the decision to do something else came quicker.
Panel 2 is very hard to read; difficult to determine who’s speaking with overlapping balloons and only one tail. Clarity in storytelling is also a choice to think.
Frazz19 hrs · It’s been interesting to watch the coronavirus acknowledgements trickle into the comics. Today is the first that it’s really hitting Frazz, but others were onto it as much as a couple weeks ago, which I suppose gives me a little bit of comfort that, as much as I’d like to have my deadlines under better control, with a little bit of a cushion, I’ve apparently got it together a little better than some of my peers. It really has been a rough spring. And if we want to go comparing again, I’ve got it so much easier than most. I hope I can give people a little bit of a respite from the stress each day. It’s not like I’m a health care worker or work in a grocery store, but I sure hope I can do something.,

She wants choices but she doesn’t want to think. Hmm…

Please tell me she forgets to vote…

Oxymoronic, or just moronic? What a choice!

Ironically, I think she summed up much of humanity perfectly!

She would really like a redo on the recent past.

Too many choices is stressful…

To lagoulou’s point and very much in line with today’s strip, a very insightful and funny Ted Talk by Barry Schwartz.

Take a few minutes, it’s very good (don’t want to raise your expectations too much…:)

Freedom of choice, is what you got.Freedom from choice, is what you want.

TV gave us an unthinking electorate with the attention span of a gnat, and that gave us what we have today.

You mean before monthly phone, wifi and cable cost $200?

Reruns like in the summertime when there were only 3 networks and you got whatever they put over the air (yeah, real wireless).
