Close to Home by John McPherson for October 17, 2023

where are the screaming kids and barking dogs?

Is there a Mute All button??

Shouldn’t They all Have their pants off like they did at home during zoom meeting

I think I would prefer this to Zoom.

Bleeb should be wearing one too!

I have a Zoom meeting once a month. The only feature I really like about it is that I can blur my background.

It is genius… but I was taping paper eyes over my closed eyes so it looked like I was awake, and it won’t work in this scenario! So, now I have to come up with a new plan, in case this catches on.

Thanks, John!!

Another brilliant comic, Mr McP. You are on a roll. Bleeb . . . not so much, but if he moves down to floor level, that could change.

Good one!

There are some face time faces we don’t need to see.

Ah yes, the Elizabethan collar for humans.

But half of them are still on ‘mute’…

You know, that’s not a bad idea for a Halloween costume. Thanks.

Good one, John!

Sorry, but if they’re not arranged in a rectangular array, it won’t work.

Shouldn’t they form a football pyramid to simulate the real thing?

HA! Will this still count as screen time?

The biggest adjustment was wearing clothes.

Face-to-FaceTime

That is very clever John! Your art has a character of its own, love it…

Max Headroom would be proud!

Great! I think I’ll call in AFK today.

…and with Halloween just around the corner.

Shouldn’t at least one person be in undies from the waist down?
