Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 08, 2021

Finally, certain games can’t show me an add every time I go to a loading screen.

Says the unicorn who can still do magic.

Phoebe: On second thought, let’s just go home, play a video game and call that an adventure.

oh, the horror of no phone reception (how shall Phoebe survive?)

“The horror! The horror!”

Looks like the other way didn’t lead to the parking lot behind the convenience store.

being in a rut has been in the story before.

Phoebe, RUN AWAY!!! You’re not prepared for this!!!!!!

Can’t Mari use her horn as a cellphone antenna / receiver?

Explains why she had never been in that part of the forest before now.

Maybe the store is just a front for a security installation, with a radio quiet zone.

and panic sets in……

What?

NNNNNoooooooooooooo

Out here, no cell phone service. With a blank stare, it don’t serve its purpose. Not worthless, look under the surface. Great green trees and the unicorn is shirtless

“And thus did things get REAL.”?

I am SO glad I didn’t have to give such a thing a consideration as a kid, and it makes me realize what a drug phones are these days. It reminds me of the time, decades ago when I was still a smoker, when my then-husband and I turned around and drove miles back to another state that had really good cigarette prices. YECH!!!! I am so glad to be out from under that, and not enslaved to my phone.

I am a guy and this strip is my guilty pleasure

First they’ll have to gather wood for a fire and then…

No reception on the phone and they get scared, how fragile the new generation is!

Weakling. We just returned from a camping trip of 1 week w/out reception.
