Fakeness
Space Frog has no patience for the virtual.
This comic is in the following storylines:
- Variations
A long-running series, maybe the crux of the site. Reader submits a suggestion, and I draw three comics based on that suggestion. Originally all three had to start the same, but it evolved. - Summer of Keith
Good old Keith! I used his suggestions, and only his suggestions, for comics all summer long. It was a pretty nice summer.
This comic includes the contribution:
- Keith Prestwich suggested: Rabish is confounded by an unlabelled tin.
Text transcript
Rabish: The label's gone so how do I know it's safe to open let alone eat? Rabid: I think it's either peas, or pork and beans! Rabot: Really? It looks like corn to me. Dr Quickly: Have you reached a consensus? Rabish: Yes, it's a tall can of Armour brand Potted Meat Food Product. Dr Quickly: You see, little can, our world has no bedrock of absolute truth -- the narratives of choice and intent override our senses when they encounter incompatible input. The ancient term "virtual reality" has become meaningless. <<KRR KRR>> <<SPROING!>> Space Frog: WEARING SUNGLASSES DOESN'T MAKE THE SUN ANY LESS BRIGHT Dr Quickly: Gah! I seem to have opened a can of worms! Rabish: Weren't we just sitting in a rose garden? Rabid: Aw, crap, my email server's down.
