Humor: When your smartphone is your top priority

If you ask any smartphone owner, especially power users, what is the one thing that they would like to see improved on their phone, the answer would be "battery life." Sure, we have higher capacity batteries and battery saving applications that are supposed to help us get through a day without having to desperately find an outlet to plug in to. And still, we watch in horror as our battery life dwindles away to 1%.

One of the funniest one-panel comic strips today is the The Argyle Sweater, and today's strip is for every smartphone owner who has ever faced a dilemma about what to unplug so that a smartphone charger could be inserted into an outlet. Of course, your decision probably didn't result in such a deadly outcome.

With smartphones becoming ubiquitous, they are becoming more and more a subject for humor. Over the last couple of days alone, smartphones figured prominently in four strips. The one accompanying this article was the funniest.
