Probably 95% of the time when anyone takes a while to respond, it’s the bottom panel. But even when we’re aware of this cognitively, it’s weird how our minds try to trick us into this 180-flip – depending on whether we’re the recipient versus the sender, haha.
The original title for this was “Texting” – but then I realized. How often do we still text nowadays. (Personally, I only really text when communicating with my parents.) I still tend to call Discord or Messenger chats “texts,” though, even though they are not technically the same.
I wasn’t sure if that would make this comic panel appear confusing, and I changed it to “messaging” after the comic was mostly finished. Do you think this makes it clearer/more accurate, or would “texting” have also worked?
