Revision as of 12:44, 21 June 2025

We still have many storylines missing. Feel free to add more if you find them!

This is a valiant effort to create a transcript for the continually growing dynamic comic 1350: Lorenz. There's a tree structure at the bottom of the page to easily understand the structure of the entire transcript (Jump to bottom). Expand below if you want to contribute building the transcript.

A permalink is needed (at least at the end of a comic) for every transcript because not all the storylines that were available originally are available today and without the link no one can check if the transcript here is wrong. Note that even from a permalink - if you click back, you may not even get the possibility you came from, if there are more than four choices - like in the first panel, but for instance also in the second panel of the refresh choice. Similarly, the choices you have when you choose a permalink won't come in the same order, and if there are more than four, you will again not be certain to have the choice you wish for - to be certain to have all choices, you need to save permalinks on all steps of a story tree. If you complete a part of the transcript, then please add a note and a date on which this occurred like this: "This branch was complete as of 2014-04-20. (Taken from the Your computer is literally haunted branch of the BSD story on Why is Python importing Skynet?)".

Typically, there will be four options. Then the version below can be inserted. After the last line of text, followed by a Permalink continue like this:

Refresh Branch

So you're still refusing to use Facebook?

I will not submit to peer pressure... Wait I should tweet that, hold on.

Or should I MySpace this?

Tweet. Ironic, because I am in fact a bird. Or is it the other way around?

Wait a second. I don't have a phone!

I can't reach the 3 key and the Shift key at the same time.

I can only stand so many motivational and cat pics, man!

Go analog, dog

Memes are becoming memes themselves

And judging from their profile pictures, Facebook causes the newly married to turn into infants

They make me so hungry.

That's right, kids! Now you can have your very own Facebook page!

Narcissism has never been this easy! Back in my day, we had to maually brag about every minor event in our life all over town!

It makes all your in-person social interactions more awkward!

Become a retro hipster before everyone else by adopting the most mainstream fad!

Now let's take this crossover to the next level!

I am Facebooksaurus!

I will swallow your personal data!

...of genus Socialnetworkus.

I fear the existential ambiguity of irreconcilable proclivities in prepetuity!

And I am two social outlets from being a hipster.

Wanna build a snowman?

Hey. I hear Godot is in town. Wanna try to meet him?

Did you get my e-mail yet?

Yeah, I'm thinking Thai for lunch

Has this hole always been here?

I don't know if actually going to Thailand is necessary…

Is it common for Thai businesses to have rooftop access?

There's a small crack in the pavement

The one with the cats of the one about geocaching in the Pentagon?

I hope it's open. Otherwise we'll just have to resort to those cat videos.

Either way we're getting on a watch-list.

So are we really doing this?

I don't care what anyone says- Donuts are not a valid breakfast choice.

Yes. You didn't see me reply burned into the lawn?

See? It’s right there!

So I guess we’re married now?

Maybe my font size was too big.

It took a lot of gasoline

Gmail must be down. Let's check it out.

It’s that hell’s light?

I wonder what’s down there

Isn’t that Sergey Brin down there?

How long do you think he’ll keep digging?

You know. Your car's on fire.

Stupid Tiles Branch

There's something weird out on the lawn.

This is an apartment. We don't have a lawn.

OK, two weird things.

I can see a creeper down there

Is this 1-1 from Mario?

Where'd the bridge go?

I have a lawn?

I hope it's not a bobcat this time.

If you reprogrammed the squirrel laser to target hipsters again...

There's a dinosaur at the door.

Self-doubt crippled my arms. Can I have yours?

Never answer your mobile phone while I am addressing you!

Also, have you heard about Tumblr?

Also I have some trenchant observations on language and philosophy to make.

It's not like you're using them.

I need a hand!

Did you think he was joking?

Sorry for just barging in, I couldn't reach the doorbell.

I heard Home Depot has 1024 bathroom tiles.

But how many bathrooms?

That's 2^5 more than Ikea, I need to see for myself.

Let's go, I can keep playing on my phone on the drive.

Pfft. Amateurs. Let's go mock them.

I think I saw a "4096" tile outside somewhere.

І follow, only because І believe you

І'll tag along, if only to see what new calming pastel color it could be.

These "threes" clones are getting out of hand.

we better catch the damn thing

Political Thing Branch

BSD Branch
