Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 23, 2019

even the occult needs a wifi signal, huh?

Trying to read a Black Book while not in Solstheim…

Summon the wi-fi demon to fix the wi-fi, but you can’t summon him without wi-fi.

Lio, your spell didn’t work because it calls for LEDs, not candles.

Story of my Life…

So he holds the staff of Uthool, wears the horned crown of Calythos, and arrays the candles aroung the wheel of Nyorlath, and he recites the summons.

“Abnegazar, Rath, and Ghast,

Demons out of eons past!

Here before me stand you now,

All your powers me endow."

(And a voice came back from the great beyond

Sayin’ fifty-seven channels and nothin’ on….)

Ten years ago, that punchline would be MEANINGLESS!

reminds me of the problem we had with our modem…we ended up having to get a new one. The only problem with installing it is wasting an hour with an app that was not necessary…

I hate it when that happens…

Sounds like hell… no wifi! Oh, the horror!

Always use a wire for critical secure connections.

Seems Cthulhu needs to call tech support.

“There’s a $10 minimum to get the password” (all lower case, all one word).

His summoning didn’t work. I wonder if the problem was one of transportation. I use Uber when my car is not available.

For everything, seriously.

In the middle of June, on a Sunday morning, I had the unmistakable symptoms of a heart attack. An hour and a half after summoning Uber, I was waking up from sedation with three new stents in my heart. And I probably saved around a thousand dollars by not calling the EMTs.

Yeah, I know it was risky. The little Uber lady couldn’t start an EKG or take other vitals while on the way to the emergency room. But she did promise to pray for me. As nearly as I can tell, that worked.

I lost interest in this strip a long time ago, primarily because of the ongoing themes such as the one depicted today. Once in a while, I stop in to have a look, in the hopes that things may have changed. Apparently they haven’t, so I’ll be on my way and leave it to those who might appreciate this brand of humor. Cheers….

You can’t just conjure up a good connection, Lio. That’s not how wifi works. Try again, please.

Lio’s a meter reader.

It kinda looks like he’s not gonna get the voodoo…hoodoo signal!!!

me on sunday
