It’s funny how many “most iconic” things I’ve never heard of until someone labels it as “most iconic”
I don’t know what to tell you. Even if you’ve never seen the comic, “on the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog” is a really well-known phrase.
I’ve never seen the cartoon before or heard that phrase, either, and I’ve been using the internet for over 25 years.
Apparently, this thing is the most iconic according to this one author.
Well I think ‘most iconic’ is typical journalistic hyperbole, but I would call it very well-known overall. Just type the phrase into a search engine.
I think most of the people complaining don’t seem to realize that this was a one-off in The New Yorker from before most people had the Internet, and not a currently running web series.
At 30 years old, it’s older than a lot of folks currently on the Internet.
Never heard of it.
I didn’t think so, either, until I clicked on it and saw the cartoon, and immediately recognized it. I never knew it had a name, though.
I’m still going with never heard of it. Apparently I don’t run in most iconic circles.
Same
the internet’s most iconic cartoon

No xkcd is significantly more iconic than what ever this thefarside clone is
Ctrl+alt+del is more iconic than whatever this is
Cyanide & Happiness is more iconic than whatever this is
Fucking PizzaCakeComic is more iconic than whatever this is
The line is iconic, but I’ve literally never seen the comic from the article.
Xkcd might be more iconic as a whole, but I can’t think of a single comic that approaches “on the internet no one knows your a dog” meme, but it’s clearly transcended its origin.
So iconic in fact no one’s ever heard or seen it.
Yes. No one.
Shocked it’s not an NFT haha
Um, Loss would like a word, sir
