Title: "The Internet's Unwelcome Attention"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1998, features Dilbert, a bespectacled man, and Dogbert, his dog. The story unfolds as follows:

• Dilbert seeks to cure his shyness by posting nude photos of himself on the internet.
• However, he is shocked to discover that the internet can reject a body, leading him to exclaim, "I didn't know the internet could reject a body."
• In a subsequent panel, Dilbert and Dogbert are shown at a table, with Dilbert stating, "I didn't know it could scream." The punchline is delivered by Dogbert, who responds, "Flake it."

The comic strip humorously explores the consequences of sharing personal content online and the unexpected reactions that can occur.
