Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled man with a bald head, sitting at his desk, playing a game on his computer. He exclaims, "I bought a gun that shoots ping-pong balls!" The next panel shows him aiming the gun at the screen, with a thought bubble saying, "I love games that involve the whole family."
