Wallet – The Jenkins
(thejenkinscomic.wordpress.com)
Ngl, this is so clever
Since there's no "Lord StarTron" in Star Trek, I'm guessing this is just a 0 mask. Why put it there?
- Your average normie's gonna look at that and say: "Star Trek BS, I don't wanna think that much," and forget all about it.
- Your average Trekkie's gonna mention it to every other Trekkie they know, and thus expand the reach of the flyer. Everyone has at least one Trekkie friend.
- The intended recipient's gonna look up "Lord StarTron", see nothing, and then out of desperation just add the birthday to the mask and try that number (which is the right answer)
It's a reference to an actual note someone put up and is basically calling them a giant nerd instead of leaving a normal message like "hey, found wallet, call this number". Although in fairness, the idea is actually pretty interesting because it creates an easy cypher only the intended recipient can crack, thus filtering out cons.
The original note was almost identical, MINUS the Star Trek part.
I looked at it and thought, "lol funny comic strip".
I thought "a lemming found a wallet"
Vulcan army? Lord StarTron!? Dude is getting trolled.
This implies the person knows the person's birthday yeah? Just confirming.
Well they have their wallet...
Well ya got me there.
Well I'm making a sandwich, you want one?
Their birth date would be take from their ID. There was a post a few months ago where someone claimed to have left a similar note after finding a wallet. No mention of the Klingon or invitation though.
Link? I'm wondering how the car was found with only information from the wallet.
Perhaps it was lying in on the ground in close proximity to the car or its drivers door?
Insurance card.
Maybe I don’t need my wallet after all
-
Why does this person know what car the other person drives and where it is? Not exactly common info found in a wallet.
-
Why not just stay where their car is? They'll obviously be back at some point.
My wallet has my ID with name and address, which is where the car is likely parked, and it has my insurance card which says exactly what make, model, and year the car is, even has the VIN.
As for the second question, the finder has places to be.
I assume the wallet was found on that block so the wallet finder put those flyers on the parked cars. We just happen to see the perspective of the wallet loser.
