How to Manage Your Own Ignorance
🕑 Added 2023-03-27 08:00:01 +0000 UTCThey don’t actually go down in tunnels to dig it up. They pump water into the ground to dissolve the baking soda, pull the water back out and separate the baking soda from the water. What can I say? I never claimed to be a journalist over here.
Here’s the segment of How It’s Made that inspired the comic.
And the fact that old segments of How It’s Made are available on YouTube inspired the joke from last week’s comic about how the things that used to be on the educational cable channels are all on the internet, and the crazy stuff that used to be on the internet is on cable.
I can fire up YouTube and watch a few hours of How It’s Made, followed by a several episodes of The New Yankee Workshop, and it will be like I’m back in the early 2000s . . . and horrifically boring.

I automatically read all of Scott's dialogue in panel 4 in the "How it's Made" narrator's voice.

My gosh, Scott... age and wisdom have refined your punchlines like aging a fine wine.
