AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "One Should Never Compose E-Mail While One Is Snarling"

Summary:

The comic strip features Tina, a tech writer, sitting at her desk with a thought bubble above her head. The bubble contains a message that reads, "One should never compose e-mail while one is snarling." The strip is divided into three panels:

• Panel 1: Tina is shown sitting at her desk, looking frustrated and angry.
• Panel 2: The thought bubble above her head contains the message, which is written in a playful, cartoonish font.
• Panel 3: Tina is shown again, this time with a more serious expression, as if she is considering the message in her thought bubble.

Overall:

The comic strip pokes fun at the common phenomenon of sending angry or snarky emails, and the potential consequences of doing so. It suggests that it's better to take a step back, calm down, and rephrase your message before hitting send. The use of a thought bubble adds a touch of humor and whimsy to the strip, making it relatable and entertaining for readers.
