Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 21, 2021

Oh! Thought it was clickbait and switch!

Internet addiction? I’ll bet none of them has ever been anywhere other than the web.

Honestly, I feel like the vast array of instant knowledge & entertainment the net provides is probably four or five times more addictive than TV ever was for me.

Treating facebook addiction must be fun

Facebook has a virtual reality product. Maybe they can be virtually cured.

Just take a tablet and sit quietly for an hour then come and see me again in a week.

Shock therapy: Lock the door and unplug the wi-fi. Devious!

I prefer emails for many things, because they are a record of what we’ve said, and they allow me to stop and rephrase. But if you’ve got a lot of questions, lets TALK about it: Much more efficient. (And then send an email “memo of understanding”)

Time for Zoom therapy.

Turn off the WiFi!

Where is this place? Do they have an agency in Australia??

Curing someone off facebook is quite easy. Just have the person walk along a busy street. Cure is at he first corner. No loss to humanity

While this might cause some to question their career choice,

… for others this might affirm that they made the right choice – that what they are doing is important and needed.

And here WE are, on the internet, in the wee hours of the morning! LOL

Cut the WIFI and install a cellphone jammer.

Oct 16 Blondie nailed the situation perfectly. Very boring to be in a place where that is the situation, but it is currently the buzz Curious to see what replaces it.

Unfortunately, today’s Blondie nailed me perfectly.

Who needs a therapist, i´ve got dogs.

Hold sessions in a faraday cage with no wifi or electric outlets.

Quiting Facebook is harder than quiting smoking

It’s ironic that we see people who are totally concentrating on their mobiles as alone or disconnected, and yet they are connecting with thousands, maybe even millions on line.

Make it a “dead zone”! Faraday cage, etc

Primates are attracted to bright, shiny objects. If it can also show everything from dirty pictures to space launches, you’ll have to pry it from their starved corpses.

Used to be that I had a rule in my house about turning off the television before sitting down to eat dinner with the family. Now, it’s insisting that all electronic devices are turned off during the meal!

My House – My Rules!

If he is charging them all by the hour, he may have hit a therapist gold mine.

The office should be a Faraday cage.

He should have a signal generator to keep the phones and tablets from working…

In some ways, the Internet has been a great help for some of us. Living alone and high risk, much of my human interaction is online, and I have YouTube Reddit stories playing when I’m eating just to have a human voice. I don’t do Facebook or Twitter, though. I’m not that desperate yet.

is this the future when the pandemic isolation is over?

This therapist’s business boomed when t hey turned off his electricity for nonpayment.

Facebook, good choice, you can start with zuckberg

How is Facebook still alive?

No problem, the shrink is probably hiding an iPad behind his paper note pad anyway.

Facebook is in such trouble they want to change its name.
