    Definitely the most honest

    Great cartoon, thanks. I saved it.

    But the greatest of all time is this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Internet%2C_nobody_knows_you're_a_dog

    "On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog" is an adage and Internet
    meme about Internet anonymity which began as a caption to a cartoon
    drawn by Peter Steiner, published in The New Yorker on July 5, 1993


    1993 ??? The "pilgrims" had not arrived, but there were BBSs, Delphi
    (online service) , Usenet, etc then. Most of the public were clueless
    then about these services.
