If I didn't arranged meeting using phone, I wouldn't have any people to talk to. Also, some of those complains are mixing up cause and effect: for example, in mass transit, people generally don't WANT to talk to other people, and before phones they usually read newspapers or books. In fact, that was already mentioned here wasn't it? Or did I mixed up [[1227]] with [https://www.sadanduseless.com/evil-iphones/]? -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 00:12, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

The explanation incorrectly mentions that Cueball's screen time has lowered by 6%, while it's actually his non-screen time that has raised by 6%.  That's not the same thing: if we do assume he's awake 16 hours per day, his screen time has only decreased by about 1.2%.  [[Special:Contributions/172.68.245.151|172.68.245.151]] 03:56, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

: That is, unless Randall meant 6% of Cueball's entire awake time.  I haven't thought of it until after posting.  [[Special:Contributions/172.68.245.151|172.68.245.151]] 03:59, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
 
 
 
::A better approximation of non-sleep time would be 17 hours per day.  Average sleep time in USA is a little under 7 hours/day.  I adjusted the percent of day awake calculation accordingly. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.246.59|108.162.246.59]] 00:05, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
 
:No, 6%. It actually specifies "While awake.". Randall already thought of that. :) [[User:NiceGuy1|NiceGuy1]] ([[User talk:NiceGuy1|talk]]) 04:22, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 
 
 
Clearly someone doesn't know what the word "pun" means (see paragraph 2)
 
 
 
The mention of Bluetooth socks reminded me of the Netflix Socks that automatically pause playback if you fall asleep. http://makeit.netflix.com/projects/socks (Sorry if the link is broken, Netflix is blocked from work.)

In case anyone else is confused, Neatnit has been inserting the discussion section on display problems with Google ads from Comic #2220 in all later comics using a wiki tag, so that discussion section and any changes to it on Comic #2220 are reflected on these later comics.  I'm guessing it's because the problem has persisted since #2220, so this is an attempt to maintain a single discussion and keep the issue visible until there's a resolution.  If this is not the reason, then it's confusing and disruptive.  If it's a meta-joke about going back in time, then it's getting old.

: Yes, that's right - it's to keep it visible. I should have been more vocal about it rather than just doing it silently... My bad.
 
: However, the section's [edit] button will take you to the correct place, so it shouldn't be that confusing.
