"A phone BOOTH?! What the hell's that?!"

It's not even a phone booth, it's something far more dated and obscure.
I thought the same thing, but the artist looks pretty young too, and apparently she knows what a phone booth is. Maybe it's a history thing? Like how everyone knows what a toga is?

It's Doctor Who, actually a Police Box, took me a moment to realize it.

The quotation marks were for the college-aged woman. The one speaking the hypothetical quote.
I know. What I meant was that I was thinking "Do college-aged people even know what phone booths were?"
I know what phone booths were because I'm old.

That's asking "do college-aged people watch movies such as GoodFellas" and I'm pretty sure that they do.

Honestly it’s the rare college student who’s seen a film older than Iron Man.

From the Skeets I’ve read on here not a single college aged person has even heard of The Matrix or films of that ilk.

i figure that most of them have seen enough old movies and tv shows to know what one is. i don't remember if i ever saw an actual phone booth in person, just nude payphones.

If they watch or read older media. I'm way too young to have ever been to a sock hop or a malt shop, but I know what they were and they were way less ubiquitous than phone booths.
Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a full booth either.

Is "time travel" the same as "waking up next Monday" here?

The TARDIS being a police box not a phone booth is an even more antiquated thing that young people would not know about. The concept of them was fucking bizarre anyway, literally just grab someone and lock them in a little closet.
"Uhhh, I dunno, you look like you're in your 40s or something" "Don't worry! I'm actually much older than that!"
Reminds me of Frankie Boyle describing Doctor Who as fundamentally Scottish: "Old man armed with a screwdriver dragging a young woman into a phone booth".

Wow I love this affectionate homage to Kiefer Sutherland's riveting performance in Phone Booth (2002).

For a brief moment, I misinterpreted the first panel as him holding a tiny phone booth on his palm. It still kind of worked.

Plot twist: He's actually telling the truth--he really IS a time traveler. Unfortunately he's on the run because he's a sex offender in his era.

Seems trustworthy enough!

Have any of the Doctor's "companions" ever tried to steal the TARDIS so that they could win the lottery? I mean, I'm not saying that I would, but if I did I'd do superhero stuff too to make up for it.

well yes, but something alien probably happened immediately before or after
