Voo-doo Chat

I realize this scenario is quite prevalent offline as well but chat compresses both time and population density to the point where you encounter this almost every five minutes. I've often thought of writing a book about the dynamics of chat as a medium however I was always too busy chatting to do so. Incidentally, the impetus for this cartoon was an offline situation which prompted a friend to ask me how I dealt with being slighted in a relationship mentioning that she had considered a voo-doo doll or a roll in the hay with someone else. Since I avoid relationships like the plague, I was hard pressed to respond although I did remember punching a piano over one a long time ago and added that to her list of remedies.
