Someone shared the first cartoon below on Facebook, which led me to the Shoebox blog and a bunch of cartoons all centered on how technology is changing our lives<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bonus points if you read all the way through the first panel\u2026<\/p>\n

R2-D2 gets passed over for a smartphone<\/a>. But why didn\u2019t they just put the Death Star plans in the cloud anyway?<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget to like this cartoon on Facebook<\/a>!<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

That last one shows why it is worth clicking the \u201cshare\u201d or \u201clike\u201d button when you like cartoons and videos. Sometimes they are on blogs or other web sites where the person makes a living (or fails to) depending on how many visitors come to the blog<\/a>. And so having said that, please click through and explore more Chuck and Beans comics<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
