FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Privacy Concerns" published June 6, 2010 - Andy: All this talk about Facebook having lax privacy defaults has me more than a little worried. Roger: How so? Andy: Our daughter spends a lot of time on that site, in case you hadn't noticed. Roger: And you're worried everyone can see what she's posting? Andy: I'm actually more concerned with what SHE can see. Paige: Omg, Mother! How many thousands of hours a day do you play Farmville?!?

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Coco Loco" published May 30, 2010 - Peter: I hope this summer is cooler than usual. Paige: Why's that? Peter: I'm growing a beard in solidarity with Conan O'Brian. I'm just a little worried it might get hot and itchy come July and August. Paige: You really think you'll have a beard after two months? Peter: Six months. Paige: Excuse me? Peter: It'll be six months. I started growing it back in January. It's coming along pretty well. Want me to get a magnifying glass so you can see it? Paige: Dude, you've gone loco. Peter: It's "coco," actually, this one patch of fuzz you can kinda see with the naked eye... Paige: I stand un-corrected.

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Buffing for Finals" published May 23, 2010 - Andy: Why are you playing "World of Warquest"?! You're supposed to be studying for finals! Peter: I know, I know, I just want to find a mage to give me an intellect buff. Tomorrow's my history exam and I'm going to need every bit of help I can get. There's a druid...There's a warlock...There's a priest...Where's a mage?? Where's a mage?? Andy: Where's an Aspirin? Peter: Oh, cool! The priest says he'll pray for me!

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Phony ID" published May 16, 2010 - Jason: Can you tell I changed my birth year on it? Peter: It says you're 21. Jason: I know. I need to be 21 to get into bars. Peter: Dare I ask why you want to get into bars? Jason: I want to start leaving fake iPhone prototypes on bar stools for tech bloggers to find. If history is any guide, this will send the entire internet into a frenzy of foaming-at-the-mouth analysis and debate. The first one I'm making will use a car battery and weigh 30 pounds. It'll have those big rabbit ear antennas they use to put on top of TV sets. No sane person will want this phone. Watching Apple fanboys defend it will be the funnies thing ever! Peter: No, the funniest thing ever would be you flashing you elementary school I.D. card to a bar bouncer. Jason: I could try my "honorary star fleet cadet" card, but I'm wearing Spock ears in the photo... Peter: I stand corrected.

Jason: As my Mother's Day gift, I won't play "World of Warquest" all day! Andy: Thanks, kids! That's so thoughtful! Roger: Not entirely. The cable's out.

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Tony Shock" published May 2, 2010 - Peter: Whatcha doing? Jason: Making a costume to wear to the "Iron Man 2" opening. Peter: What's wrong with the "Iron Man" suit you wore for the first movie. Jason: Welding myself into metal armor turned out to be a big mistake. Peter: Oh, yeah. The restroom problem. Jason: This time I'm going as regular Tony Stark. I'll wear a fake goatee, some fancy duds...And attached to my chest will be this working 3-gigawatt miniaturized arc reactor, just like the one he made in the movie. Peter: By "working," you mean it just lights up, right? Right?? Right?? Jason: Now, when I turn it on, your hair might stand up a little, but that's normal...
