Heart of the City by Steenz for March 25, 2023

Would you take advice from a talking paper clip?

There were more options than just Clippy. You just needed some disk (probably an install disk) to get to them. And most people never probed deeper, and didn’t know they even existed.

It looks like Charlotte is writing the essay on her own, nowadays a great concern with HS teachers and college profs is the use of AI to write the perfect essay. If I were Char, I would click no thx, be yourself Charlotte do not let who ever programmed the spellcheck dictate your choice of vocabulary else your essay will look like 95% of the others on the said topic.

I always liked the cat.

Clippy! I forgot about you!

Go away, paper clip! No one likes you!

I always liked Clippy

Clippy? What version of Office is this? Millenium?

CLIPPY!!!

Finally, useful advice from Clippy! Only took three decades.

Clippy?! What the fudge?!

Boy is that computer software old. Clippy was retired years ago.

Clippy got woke.

Why is it that every single year around Mother’s Day, all of these labor statistics are calculated to estimate how much mother would make in the way of a salary if they were actually paid for the work they do as housewives/homemakers, yet, they never will actually pay mothers for that work? If they can figure out how much they would make, then why not figure out a way for them to actually make that much? It’d really help, especially in this day and age where the economy is so out of whack, and families are barely scraping by.

Gender neutral? The essay is about her mother, that could only be one gender. This strip is so woke it has become a parody

Ugh. I hated that version of Word. It was annoying and not helpful at all.

I miss that clip!
