Kids will have to learn about TekWar sooner or later

Fair enough:) I recon a non insignificant amount of dogs would probably be confused about this comic strip too - if asked.

This one is pretty funny imo.
Unexpected reply paired with making fun of the army.
It wasn’t the fact that he has a pair of feet sticking out of this head that was the problem for the army, it was that they where flat and he couldn’t march on them.
Probably also resonated a little bit more with people in 1988 since many had directly experienced the Vietnam War draft.
Not having to go to Vietnam was a big relief for a lot of people.

Yepp, that also works. Always cool when something can be funny in many different ways.

My take. Most people get uncomfortable when you stare at them eating.
People generally don’t look at other people eating for that reason, but they’ve probably done that to the dog.
You’ve been making the poor dog uncomfortable for years, but it’s mans best friend so its let it go.

Just wanted to write down my appreciation for the "Firefox Translations" extension and make people who might find it useful, but missed its announcement, aware of it.

For the people who haven’t heard about Firefox Translations it does local translation from one language to another.
Works on the entire page or just whatever you select.

Not having to offload the task to say google translate or some other company is a great win for privacy and anti-tracking.
It is yet another reason why I’m still on Firefox all these years later.
On any other browser(vast vast majority) this would be online and data mined.

It can’t compete with google translate on number of languages right now, but for a lot of people I’d imagine it’s pretty useful in its current state.
Hopefully additional languages will be added with time.

More information about it here if you want to know more.
