Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for April 12, 2011
Transcript:
Danae: Heh... heh... take that, all you Tweet elites! Lucy: Um... I thought you were giving up on Twitter. Danae: I decided to turn things around... instead of being jealous of other people's Tweets, I'm gonna make everyone else jealous of my Tweeterific fabulosity! Lucy: So... you're sitting next to Justin Bieber in a coffee shop right now? Danae: In the alternate universe of Tweetworld, yes.

So what is the point of paying attention to any of it? And is that Wiley’s point also?

I didn’t know he was friends with famous letter bomber Theodore Kaczynski. But I guess I should’ve known.

I think it’s sad about Justin Bieber - people should stop making fun of her.
Destiny23 over 13 years ago
Of course, she could have said she was sitting next to a talking horse. But no-one would believe that!

A couple of decades ago, there was a cartoon in the New Yorker: two dogs sitting in front of a computer monitor, and one of them grinning and saying: “On the Internet, no one knows you’re a dog.” Classic. And still true.

So am I the only one who notices that Danae seems to be tweeting from a shiny new iPad?
uniquename over 13 years ago
You know, most of these comments could be tweets…

@Uniquename: Ha! The comic and the commentary have now combined to reach a new level of meta.

No one has thought of the horror of a caffeine powered Danae?!? As opposed to Justin Bieber, Danae would be a thinking evil…

I feel like I’m walking across a covered bridge before dawn with a lunch bucket full of horse dung biscuits. If this makes no sense, it’s the point I’m trying to make. I’m hoping no one gets down here this far anyway.

Hey Gerald, looks more like a pirated iPad! Arrrrrrrr!

Lessee; first, ^the Callahan’s Place stories end (the first batch, set in Long Island, not sure which one) with Callahan’s first name (as he leaves our time) being Justin. Look for the pun there.
Second, yesterday’s Dilbert has an interesting take on a twisted social-networking idea.
Twitter might (just might) cause a resurgence of haiku, or at least, terse prose (if we can get past the awful TLAs and ABBRs).
