AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "User Interface Flu"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a software engineer, discussing his new user interface design with a colleague. The colleague is unimpressed, commenting that the design is "puke" and expressing a desire to "interface design" to avoid getting the "flu." The punchline relies on wordplay, with "interface design" sounding similar to "infectious disease." The humor is derived from the unexpected twist on the typical meaning of "interface design" and the clever use of language to create a humorous effect.
