ancient-times
Explanation
This comic is a nostalgic monologue by an older man recounting to a child what media consumption was like in "the old days." He describes the elaborate, multi-step process of how video content used to reach viewers: someone had to witness an event (like a dog biting a man), hope a camera operator was nearby, record it on tape, transport the tape to a television studio, have expert editors review it, and finally broadcast it to the nation on scheduled programming.
The humor comes from the caption at the bottom: "The older I get, the stranger the past seems." The joke works on two levels. First, it satirizes how absurdly convoluted the old broadcast television pipeline now seems compared to the modern era where anyone can instantly record and share video from their phone. Second, it plays on the common trope of older people waxing nostalgic about the past as though it were superior, but here the old man's description actually highlights how inconvenient and inefficient things used to be. The child's expression suggests bemusement at this strange bygone world.
The comic is a commentary on how rapidly technology has changed media production and distribution, making the recent past feel almost alien.
