Small panel: He could use some “Dial” soap. Large panel: He gets easily “board”.

Lenny, you know you’re likely on a doorbell cam.

LOL

Is that Lenny the Luddite in the first panel too?

/Maybe I AM just getting old, but I’m starting to feel like a sympathizer/collaborator with the Luddites.

That’s not Lennie. It’s Peiping (formerly Peking) Tom.

Lenny’s like an old friend who’d go on and on about how he didn’t own a TV. Then I found out that he’d spend a couple’f hours a day in his flatmate’s room, watching his.

Inactive distrust and/or hatred for technology does not a Luddite make. If Lenny were trying to burn down Google (or Facebook, or Apple, or Microsoft) headquarters, THAT would make him a Luddite. Modern usage of the term to cover people who simply don’t (rightly these days) trust big tech is historically incorrect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite

There is much to be said for luddism. And technophobia.

Lenny is one of those Windows users.

Both panels can be seen as Luddites.

So Lenny is checking to see who has those new-fangled smart TVs?

When will they have desk phones with video screens to receive text messages and pictures?

Br careful looking in other peoples windows. You just might see something you don’t want to see…

Lenny’s part of the neighborhood watch program.
