INTERNET ANONYMOUS

 

This scene takes place in an office. There are two men, and visibly, they wear the office's uniform.The first man is standing and watching the other person, he looks skeptical and baffled.

The second person,is sitting at a desk, where there are a desktop, and electronic devices ( a monitor, large speakers, a keyboard...), and he looks overjoyed and excited too !

This cartoon deals with Internet addiction. The person tries to kick his addiction but he is surfing the web to do it : it's completely paradoxical !
As a result, I think this picture is satirical and tries to make us aware of Internet addiction. 

Kicking his addiction like that is contradictory, because it's like trying to kick a drinking addiction with a glass of wine !

This picture concerns many people because there are so many Internet users and they can be addicted as well.

And on the  one hand, this addiction  depends on the degree of computer use. But you can't be addicted if you use the computer carefully.

But, on the other hand, the people addicted  cut themselves off and isolate themselves  from the others, but they need the others for kick their addiction.
 Moreover, I think this  cartoon is representative of today's world and today's generations . 

Definitely, I think it's a serious addiction, and we must bear this in mind and help the people who are addicted.
