Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for June 18, 2022

Like that GEICO advertisement: “do people use smartphones to do dumb things?”

Means to an end

@Ling Today’s strip IS funny , the way our HERO Mr Andrew Capp utilizes technology is priceless :o) come passerai il vostro Sabato mio piu meno vecchio Amico? my avatar is a picture of Rowan Atkinson as Mr Bean grinning because he’s in a good mood like I am , our Saturday should be a little busy but we will cope I’m sure , we both are in a good mood , no shopping or errands to run just stay inside the house and keep hydrated because it’s windy outside, keep safe and a bientot pal.

hmmm did he really BORROW that off Chalkie?

Leave it to Andy to make an electronic touch on a friend!

That’s like a gun in the hands of a child.

#ANDY-APP: “2:00 Minutes before Andy hit’s you up for a loan”, 1:59, 1:58, 1:57"

Response from Eddie: “Go to Hell, you lazy, worthless bum!!”

BTW, you think that Chalkie will get his phone back??

Andy is one of the last people that I thought would have a smart phone.

Andy could take out the word “Eddie” and use the rest for his voice mail message.

Block the number, easy!

@rjm- Yes. It seems like Andy’s using technology to be a high tech moocher.

Now he’s gonna get Chalkie’s number blocked.

Our lad is just following the advice given here: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=reach+out+and+touch+someone+jingle&view=detail&mid=DBFA71DF26171A0448EDDBFA71DF26171A0448ED&FORM=VIRE

Let’s see – Would Eddie assume the mooch came from Chalkie, seeing as how it’s his phone?

Nice of Andy to give Eddie a heads up. Now he’ll gulp down his ale and tell Jack to tell Andy he had to tend to an emergency at home.

The theft of cell phones is the Number # 1 crime here in Ecuador.

People are advised to be very careful using them on the street or in public places.

People have had them ripped out of their hands by thieves on motorcycles while sitting at a traffic light with their car window rolled down.

Lend means it will be paid back some day. A gift on the other hand….

Smythe would never have taken a bribe from a company for a product placement.

How about that, high tech mooching.

Eddie: “Why is Chalkie trying to bum money off me?”

Andy always looking to sponge.

No., buy your own. And no, I’ll never get it back
