Dilbert comic analysis
Dilbert is a comic strip written by Scott
Adams. The character Dilbert was created by him based on his various coworkers
over the years. The comic strips generally talks about Dilbert in his office
and his personal life. He basically stresses on normal life situations. One of
the themes I am concentrating is that he supports all the technologies there is
and how it is affecting us.
This comic strip talks about how Dilbert
has nothing to do because his cable, television and internet were not working
so instead had to stare at the wall so as to go to sleep. This actually shows
how depended we are on technology that without that we nothing to do or don’t
want to do anything other than that. This strip highlights how the technology
has become a very crucial and important part of our lives that we can’t live
without it.
The above comic strip is also something on
the same lines as the previous comic strip. In this Dilbert is in love with his
cellphone. He likes it so much that when the therapist asks him about that he
says it is a better than another person. Here he implies a joke based on that
when the therapist tells him that the phone is like a woman to him he says it’s
better as he cellphone doesn’t judge. He goes to the therapist that shows that
he knows that he has a problem because he loves his phone but he doesn’t mind
and in fact likes that. This tells that we know we are so attached to
technology that we are actually drifting away from people around us but we
don’t really mind it.
The above comic strip talks about how
technology is fast growing and the prior technology become old and obsolete
very fast. Dilbert tells to his customer that he is outdated to use a fax
machine to send information. As the technology is changes we also have to be
updated so as to be in power with others.
The above comic tells how each new
technology or invention is first seen as a stupid idea and then so world
famously accepted. He actually compares a weird cellphone in a shape of an old
man with how people would have thought light bulbs when invented would have
been thought of as a weird invention.
In this comic strip Dilbert tells his boss
that a robot from future has come through a time machine to destroy their
company. Then he says that while one of the technologies is mastered the other
can still use some work on as it doesn’t function properly and complete the
task for which it was made and send
