xkcd

Does anyone read xkcd? Its mostly entertaining, except when its inappropriate (according to a mod, because of that we can't link to it, but I think we can refer to it by numbers like xkcd #404). I don't really want to look for my favorites to put here though, there are ~1100 right now.
xkcd has also kept me entertained every day except Thursday and weekends.

Discuss xkcd.

Re: xkcd

It's okay to discuss it, but make sure not to link to it.

And #404 doesn't exist. It's a joke.


Lurking more than posting, but still here.

I love these, and usually pick a random spot to begin. Look at xkcd#180.  tongue

Lol.

IMO, there are better webcomics but if I want something quick yet funny, xkcd is good for a small laugh.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Re: xkcd

Haha, I love these. I particularly like the "1337" subseries (#341-345) and what-if.xkcd.com. Can't remember any other particular comics I like  tongue

Wait what? SHOW ME THE POST!

I think its because they can have *some* inappropriate content, like xkcd #[number removed by Naruto], so we wouldn't want kids to click on them, and
"Mom, what's ______?"

*gasp* Lightnin posted an xkcd link! To (mostly) quote the linked comic, something is WRONG on the internet.
