This is the complete transcript for the dynamic comic 1350: Lorenz, formatted following a tree structure, as you can see from the table of contents below. A permalink is provided for every panel, at least at the end of a comic, as not all the storylines that were available originally are available today. Note that, if there are more than four choices, a permalink is not enough to get to the first panel of that chain. Similarly, the choices you have when you choose a permalink won't come in the same order. To be certain to have all choices, there are permalinks on all steps of a story tree.

I have a lawn?[Knit Cap and Hairy leave the house. They pass by a moat.] Hairy: Hmmm, did you order a moat?
Knit Cap:
It helps keep bobcats out.
Of course. All cool kids have moats in their yards.
I don't have the best relationship with my mailman.
Yep. Delivered in two days, courtesy of Amazon Prime. I don't remember this being here.
Knit Cap:
It has begun! That's one of the first holes in reality.
Knit Cap:
I've been working on a theory that 2048 is a tool for the old ones to open up portals to this reality.
What about black holes? Those don't count?
We must go deeper. I wanted to jump over the massive sinkhole, but nooo, someone just had to find out what was down there.
Oh, I had the moving company install it last week.
We poop in it.
Finally got you out of the damn house.
Narrator: A wild Pikachu appeared! Narrator: Enemy Pikachu used "Ink Cloud"! Narrator: ... Pikachu: Um... Pikachu: Well then. Pikachu: I might have left surprises in that direction. Look how deep it goes!
Hairy:
I wonder if we can get someone to fall in?
I'm going in. You can come if you want to. I think I see stars down there.
That was a missing opportunity.
I should come outside more often. It looks like I can see Moria from here.
Knit Cap:

[Knit Cap and Hairy pass by a tree.] Hairy: Not idly do the leaves of Lorien fall. I hope it's not a bobcat this time.[A giant hole appears and they fall into it.] Knit Cap and Hairy: Aaaaa... [Knit Cap wakes up.] Knit Cap: Gasp [Goes to his desk.] Knit Cap: Yawn [Sits at his desk.] Knit Cap: Might as well clear more tiles.
[Hairy visits Knit Cap again.] Hairy: Um, there's a hole in your lawn...
Knit Cap:
If it doesn't lead to a 1024 tile, I'm leaving.
Damn bobcats.
Hairy:
Well it was here...
I don't think it was bobcats this time. Unless they have backshoes... I just had a dream about that.
[Knit Cap and Hairy go outside again and fall in the hole again~.] Knit Cap and Hairy: Aaaaa... [Knit Cap wakes up, leaves the bed and finds a boomerang.] Knit Cap: It looks like is [sic] fell from space.
[Knit Cap throwns the boomerang away and it hits something.] Crash! [Knit Cap runs away.] I hope this isn't just another one of those dreams that keeps coming back at you.
[Knit Cap throws the boomerang twice, only for it to return to him both times.] Knit Cap: Hm. I was expecting a shark. [Knit Cap throwns the boomerang again, and it returns to him again.] I hope this was not thrown by a bobcat.
[Knit Cap throws the boomerang, only for it to return to him .] Knit Cap: There's a mesage written on it. [Knit Cap throws the boomerang again. It hits something.] Crash! [Knit Cap runs away.] There's someone at the door looking for you.
I made an apple pie.
If you want to do that, I'm rebuilding my bathroom this afternoon. Definitely not going outside today.
Thank God it wasn't a bobcat.
Hairy:
You just got a package. It's by the door.
Why is there a bobcat on your lawn?
There's somewhere [sic] weird out on the lawn.
Knit Cap:
This seems familiar.
[Knit Cap and Hairy go outside.] Knit Cap: I hope it's not a velociraptor. Hold up. I need to get my wingsuit first.
I hope it's not a giant hole.
[Knit Cap and Hairy go outside. They pass by a tree.] Hairy: How disappointed are you? Knit Cap: I was expecting a bobcat.
Oh? That's the other tree.
Eh, not that much. I have a bad feeling about this. Hey do you know why there's a giant hole in the yard?
[Knit Cap and Hairy go outside.] Knit Cap: I swear if it's a bobcat. Knit Cap: Why did you bring me here?
This dream has been looping for years, and yet we never tire of it. Why is that?
[There is a gap in the ground. Knit Cap jumps over it, Hairy looks into it.] Hmmm... I should buy a shovel.
[Knit Cap looks at his screen wondering.] Knit Cap: Wow! Shovels sure are expensive!
Shovels can't be actually made out of two sticks and a row of rocks?
[Knit Cap is wondering more. Hairy comes. They connect their laptops. Hairy is wondering. Knit Cap tries something at Hairy's laptop.] How can there be 36 types of shovel??!
These prices are insane! I wonder if you can rent a shovel... If you reprogrammed the squirrel laser to target hipsters again...[Knit Cap and Hairy go outside.] Knit Cap: Let's just say we won't have to worry about parking.
No, now they're just wearing wigs ironically.
Things may have gotten out of control a little.
At least it improved their haircuts. There's a dinosaur at the door.

Laptop: "...and let's go live to the debate." [Two politicians are debating on TV.] Politician 1: In contrast to my oppponent, who I quote, "Never liked Firefly much to begin with."
...but even if you tied enough birds to the car, would you get them to take off in unison?
Politician 2:
Tie a predatory bird to the car with a somewhat shorter rope so that it will scare off the rest of the birds without being able to reach them.
Training. That's why I support the "Airlift Act", which would put more resources into the hands of bird educators everywhere.
Politician 1:
But is "Airlift" an acronym?
Hairy:
There are birds outside tied to a car.
Knit Cap:
Cool, let's see who we should vote for.
I know who I'm voting for.
How many birds? (permalink)
Hairy:
I call her "Serenity."
So when you said birds...
Knit Cap:
Wait. The birds are inside!?
White Hat: Want to forget your dreams? There's a pill for that! Someone inside the rocket: I needed to escape from politics anyway.
Voice inside the rocket: "…And let’s go live to the debate". (permalink)
Other spacecraft: We observe your speed to be 38.5%c, and your time is passing at 92.3% the rate of ours. Does this mirror your observations? All terms are relative. Liquefied bird fuel is the way to the future.
Well, by “birds” and “car” I really meant a rocket. There’s totally a rocket in your lawn, man. The owls in our barn are forming a union.
Or course: Avian Implemented Reuseable Lifter and Ingenuous Flight Technology! But you must agree that a bitd in the hand is worth more than three educators in the bush.
Incredible!
Wait... Is that like people who educate birds, or birds that teach? By opening and closing an umbrella near them.
One word: Fiscal hawks. And if elected, I vow to win this war on Christmas once and for all!
I agree with my opponent all all [sic] issues and I think his economic plan is fantastic!
Yeah? well І agreed wholeheartedly with yours, first! You can't copy mine! |

[Knit Cap is confused, staring at her laptop.] Knit Cap: ?? Knit Cap: Now I just need to look up what a "beard error" is...[Knit Cap has ?? next to her head to signify confusion. Hairy walks in. (continue) Hairy is on the other side of the desk with his own laptop computer. Both the computers are connected through Ethernet cable. The two characters are typing on the computer. The two stop typing. Hairy has ??? next to his head. Hairy had stepped back while the character is checking on Hairy's laptop computer. Knit Cap is holding something rectangular.] Hairy: The USB cable appears to be mono-directional.
Kernel mites?
I'm not sure rubbing butter on it will help
[Hairy and Knit Cap are handling their computers more aggressively.] Knit Cap: ARGH! [They both stop. Knit Cap walks away, her chair turned 180 degrees. Pushing aside the chair, she returns with a fiery blowtorch while wearing goggles.] Are you all of a sudden in the mood for Thai food?
Let's try OpenBSD next time...
[First panel is of a panned view. Hairy and Knit Cap are walking on a path away from a house. Next panel is back to a "normal camera view".] Hairy: Okay then.
Let's go exploring!
I love Windows.
Guess not. If you'd done the other one, maybe the popcorn would have popped.
Let's see if rubbing some bacon on it will work.
Let's try Linux next time... Yep. It's haunted. Wait. What's on this other partition?[Knit Cap has ??? next to her head to signify confusion. Hairy walks in.

[Knit Cap and Hairy are at sea, both emitting ripples. A shark's fin can be seen close to Hairy.] Hairy: It worked fine for the shark
We're definitely getting closer though
That didn't work!
It would have worked for Solaris.
Look, it made perfect sense at the time.
Still simpler than it used to be, I guess. What's a segfault?
I think the cameras need to face each other.
I'm not sure spaghetti works as a USB cable... Why is Python importing Skynet?(Permalink)
