Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for May 02, 2024

You need 2 adult witnesses to get married in Washington State. Will some of the pay-per-viewers count as witnesses?

How could those losers afford to get Pay-Per-View—let alone bribe Joanie to attend?

Her Mother will love the naked bridesmaids, too!!!

Will they have any Pay Per View guests?

Zeke, whose name is a synonym for despicable (in the Doonesbury world).

AAAH, the speed of 56k, that was living!

48k in real life, parity bits….

…I love the iMac…

Alex despises him, too. Of course, JJ is the only one in the entire Doonesbury cast with a favourable impression of him.

56k?

Why ? , Why ? get married in the first place ?

Wow. I remember 56k. How did we ever survive? More to the point, how did we ever watch pron?!

Dial-up, FTW!!

No comment about the 56K??? I can hear that modem squeal!

Maybe I’m slow today, but I don’t get the 56K remark. Obviously not a flying reference because planes don’t fly that high.

Can you RSVP with a “Sorry, no, maybe next time.”?

can anyone clarify what the 56K is about?

What’s 56K got to do with it?

Zeke, everyone except JJ despises you… and sometimes, I wonder about her.

The iMac! In candy colors!

Yeah, good thing this all really occurred back when broadband meant a U.S. Robotics fax modem.

Not even inviting the nude bridesmaids?

It took me a while to figure out that she doesn’t care if her Mom despises Zeke (face to face at the wedding), she just doesn’t want her (56K modem) pay-per-view viewers to be aware of it.

Is it even going to be a real marriage ceremony? JJ’s the type to get one of her kooky artist friends to “officiate.” I can’t remember how this story arc panned out.

I don’t know why Zeke is so worried. The only person who doesn’t despise him is the woman crazy enough to marry him.

I believe it would be obvious at 2K.
