oh man that panel where you ask 'how can everyone afford one of these?' was perfect. it is really weird how we don't question it anymore, we just buy the new phone because WE CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT. i too wish to be a whimsical woman with a flip phone but i don't know if it would actually curb my internet habits and i desperately need maps in my life.
"one coffee, two sugars" was the trick i was taught for neCeSSary! beyond that, i need google. also to search for the meaning of words that sound smart but i forgot what they mean
I am excited to see that someone else has taken the Mouse into adult life. I reference “If you Give A Mouse A Cookie” as the thing that leads to another thing and often get blank stares from other people. It seems so apt for many situations.
My printer broke this week and I was secretly happy because I thought... omg I get to get a new one, then my boyfriend said “don’t worry I can fix it!” And I low key didn’t want him to... (but he did)

Hahaha I know!! I too would be (literally) lost without maps, and the ability to google random things like the spelling of “necessary”

Exactly 😭 and old sayings and quotes I'm not sure I’m remembering correctly!

I agree! I think about it all the time
Especially the panicked look when you can't figure out what time it is without your effing phone
Unfortunately completely true to life 😭
Brilliant!!!!! Laughing so hard I might pee!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
And, brilliant!
Thanks mom 🥰
I hear ya sister!
I want to be the whimsical...

Boooooo
It's a sign to...switch over to an android! Then, Apple doesn't get to tell you what phone to use! I refuse to convert to Apple products.
