oh God it's finally happening. boomer style comics are beginning to make sense to me

It sucks because this comic is right and boomers are right to be pissed off at stupid shit like needing wifi to power a grill and whatnot. It's just it's usually the worst people on earth screaming about it.

but what if you need to check the status of your grill from your living room? Did you ever think about that? Did you think about the horrors of not owning a $350 toaster that connects to your wifi so it can display the weather and will inevitably break in 2-3 years because its exponentially more complex than a $10 toaster
- I wish appliances lasted 2-3 years. I bought an airfryer a year ago and while it didn't run on any app/IoT slop, it still had a touch-based control screen and half of it quit working after about 4 months. It was essentially bricked because the side that had the buttons that controlled the temperature and cook time was the side that wasn't working. The whole process to send the thing in to get it repaired under the warranty would have cost me almost as much as buying a new one (including paying out of pocket to ship it by Fedex/UPS/etc to the service center).
  The airfryer was admittedly nice while it lasted though. It was especially great for those few months in the summer because I didn't have to use my oven to bake certain foods, which would have overheated my already hot house.
  I'm with the boomers: bring back knobs and switches, fuck digital buttons.

and it'll happen to YOU

What’s fun is buying a physical product released a year ago, only works with the app, logging onto their app, the app is deprecated, it links to a new app, deprecated, it links to some smart 3rd party home app.

when I was real little, I remember wandering around a flea market and seeing a true, literal boomer comic art sign and, even though I didn't understand it, it seared into memory.

it was a man in fishing gear, u to his belly in water, his line cast with a hook. but he wasn't wearing any pants and a fish was putting its mouth on his penis.

the caption said "the happy fisherman". you can image search this phrase with "comic" and find various iterations. CW: gross, weird.

now I am fully grown and it still makes no sense to me. both in concept or the will to own such a sign.

Boomer hentai
- Grill?
  Beer?
  Wife (GONE)
  Fish nibbling at my peantis?
  It's boomer hentai time
- i wonder if that fish and the octopus are a couple and the fisherman and his wife are swingers or if they have some other arrangement.

If you hadn't said this most of us would not have done so. Now look what you've gone and done.

If I'm talking to you already and you tell me to use QR, you're not saving my time, you're saving your own. And considering the only places I've seen this bullshit is in expensive brunch eateries, I don't accept that.
