Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 11, 1986
Transcript:
Calvin: I just read this great science fiction story. It's about how machines take control of humans and turn them into zombie slaves! Hobbes: So instead of controlling machines, they control us? Pretty scary idea. Calvin: I'll say. Hey! What time is it?? My TV show is on!

Even more horrifying today… I think back then some people had an inkling, but the rest of us scoffed. But they had the right idea. Anything that takes up so much of your time you’ve no time for real life, can’t be good.
