My computer guy thought this was funny. You might have to scroll down a little or maybe even navigate to find the Tues, Sept 2, comic strip. > **[Rhymes with Orange Comic Strip 2025-09-02 | Comics Kingdom](https://comicskingdom.com/rhymes-with-orange/2025-09-02)** > > Read the Rhymes with Orange comic strip from September 2, 2025, and check out other Rhymes with Orange comics by Hilary Price & Rina Piccolo. (I tried posting this in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. I got one of those “being held for moderator review” messages. That posting seems to have vaporized, so I’m trying again.) ---

I think I’ve only gotten 3 OTA updates since I bought my vehicle in October, 2022. ---

My car GPS unit map looks different these days. I guess the car updated itself. ---

The systems menu on your car might have a section that records software updates. You could check it if you want to know. ---

No, the mechanic should say “Your car should be connected now. Check your phone again to see if you got the confirmation code from your car, then we can try to start it.” ---

This cartoon could mean 2 things: either the car is ‘all computer’ and legitimately needs rebooting or the mechanic is a young-person who equates restarting with rebooting. The car looks old-style, but it is a cartoon. ---
