    I momentarily (mis)read the cartoon’s title as something like “When we all have pocket teleporters” and thought the first frame was some kind of use case for a 19th/20th century sci-fi pocket teleporter, where said device was activated allowing the person to run faster while chasing the train.

    My eyes followed to the second frame and only then I realized the cartoon was about pocket telephones, not pocket teleporters, beeping while being inside the pocket.

    A beeping pocket teleporter would be equally annoying, though: “No, I’m not interested in a monthly subscription fee of 42 bars of gold for faster and farther teleporting needs, shut up with your ads, Thomas Edison’s Magic Porter Apparatus”
