    This comic came out in the year 2000. I guess back then GPS was so unused in the general public, they felt the need to explain what that meant.

    It's just funny to me. Seeing it explicitly explained with an editors note what GPS is.

      seeing it explained WRONG, that is. GPS recievers are passive, you can't track a car using the GPS reciever on the car...

          A couple years later, probably 2003ish, I remember a project in middle school where we had to come up with a product idea and make a commercial for it.

          We somehow landed on the idea of a cell phone. Camera phones were still kind of a new idea, flip phones were starting to get popular, the razr hadn't hit the scene yet, and modern smartphones were still a few years away.

          I was a kind of a tech nerd, the other people in my group weren't, so a lot of the ideas about what would make our phone special came from me. I remember suggesting GPS capabilities and they had never heard of it.

          So yeah, it definitely warranted some explanation back then.

            Upvoted, and also I need to know what episode. H Jon Benjamin is the best in everything he does.
