An Avatar Christmas – page 23
…and the best part is, I actually DON’T get to use the “Ichabod story” tag on this page. The characters in this comic get more self-aware every day.
To whom it may concern, this is technically the LAST of the 2022 Christmas pages, at least in terms of when they were completed. It took me long enough, but I’ve FINALLY gotten used to the idea that I need to go ahead and get at LEAST the 24th and 25th pages done as early as possible. In a worst case scenario, I don’t wanna be stuck falling behind schedule and spending Christmas Eve night working on webcomic stuff. And even if I don’t fall behind schedule, I just don’t wanna be running out of steam right at the end. Not exactly the best way to stick the landing.
Ah, but she DOES want to know (Because the Mads programmed her with insatiable curiosity and thirst for any new knowledge, useful or not), and she knows she wants to know, she just wishes she didn’t want to know!
Avatar doesn’t want to know a LOT of the things she knows
*I* don’t want to know many of the things I know from the internet! 🙂
I can only imagine it must be infinitely worse when the internet is a nonillion times larger and a million+ years of archives and you have it ALL in your head. Yikes. 😮
Actually, the dangerous disasters that currently are available on “the internet” would probably be improved from today’s standard by FOT’s time. With the “fake news”, “pseudo fake-news”, “Echo Chambers” and other common primarily internet-based horrors becoming things of the past.
…this is partially due to those who created them taking over entire planets, so they’re no longer “internet” problems so much as they are “planet” problems. And partially because the Internet long stopped being something new to the point that people had become so blasé to it’s existence and a lot of that stuff calmed down or has been regulated.
No, the problematic knowledge that Avatar knows are the common occurrences. Things like what actually happens on many of the more “exciting” Nitpicker call outs. Or, for one of the less emotionally scarring pieces of archived knowledge, intimate details about things like the Masagento Genocide Pie and The Great Pastry War that it started.
