Don't you want to see goofs and spoofs? Wondermark #1582

::: spoiler Alt text This actually isn't good! Phones only show you horrors when they're VERY DEPRESSED, or at any other time :::

::: spoiler Transcript Device: Hey! Hey! I can’t help but notice you’ve been holding me less. I miss you. I miss your nimble taps and swipes.
Person: It’s because you’re a portal to horrors! Nothing personal. It’s just… you are a portal. And there are so very many horrors.
Device: I’m a portal to everything. Don’t you want to see goofs and spoofs? You love goofs and spoofs!
Person: I do love goofs and spoofs.
Device: I’ve got so many goofs and spoofs.
(Person reaches for device)
(Person is thrown back; device displays "HORRORS" into the room) :::

Phones are possibly the biggest technological game changer in the world. They have so supercharged so many aspects of society and economy while bringing down so many others.
