Job 38:1-7 (34-41)
In the comic strip The Born Loser, Brutus Thornapple is staring at his computer console. Brutus is a good-hearted individual, but he seems to stumble through life and receives little respect from family, friends, and coworkers. He reminisces on all the emails and advice he receives on protecting his identity from identity theft. He then concludes in the last frame of the cartoon, "Who would want to pretend to be me?"
