    It’s the Natural History Museum…so this must take place a few million years in the future…A time after tigers evolved into using bluetooth headsets…(or sprouting them from birth?)

    And then even those tigers became extinct… and ended up in this museum.They’d be the ancestors of the ones in the present day of the strip…. the ones we can’t see.

    Maybe those modern tigers drive flying cars and work in tech firms..

    Gotta love the Starbucks cup and smug expression that go with the headset.

    What the heck is a Sablue? If it’s a Starbucks thing, I quit Starbucks years ago after they served me a pre-made cappuccino from a pitcher.

    Sabre toothed cats are not tigers.

    What about sabre-rattling tigers? (All bluff, in most cases.)

    Where’s the phone that goes with the Bluetooth headset?

    Dosbears… the point of a Bluetooth headset is that it transmits and receives phone signals…It lets you keep the phone in your pocket, or anywhere within range, and frees your hands.(BTW, it’s also what’s used in a lot of “hand-free” car devices..which let you make and receive calls while driving, without looking at or touching your phone.)

    Tigers may not have evolved to have pockets, even in the day of the Sabluetooth tiger…. But Bluetooth may have been developed by then with a much longer range, and their phones might have been much smaller than ours….So I’d kinda prefer not to speculate on the exact location of his phone.
