I want to join this group, but then there would no longer be 314 members, so it wouldn't be so pi-tastic. Now I'm not sure whether I should join or not!

xkcd is the worst of the 2 by far, but they both suck shit so I went with "death".

I used to keep changing dude who writes xkcd's Wikipedia entry to claim that he was a white supremacist, and this shit got altered back within seconds.

I could have gone my whole life without seeing any of these cartoons you fucking assholes

try mentioning him having a sideline in anime furry erotica maybe next time you want to do a bit of wikivandalism? (xpost)

Dear Randall Munroe,

Could you please come to this internet forum thread and apologise for being neither funny or insightful. It would mean a lot to us.

Thanks,

Yours, the general public.

This thread brought to you by the fact that someone I formerly liked and respected added the xkcd app to their Facebook profile this morning.

xp, ZANG

i have a horrible certainty that xkcd dude is v. proud of his stick figures, seeing himself as a genius who has broken all the rules of cartooning in order to forge a new, more direct means of etc blah blah

http://thephoenix.com/article_ektid48208.aspx

The meet-up was prompted by a March comic entitled “Dream Girl,” in which Munroe’s stick-figure narrator recounts meeting a girl in a dream who urgently whispered a date and time and the mapping coordinates — 42.39561, -71.13051 — of Williams Park in his ear. The narrator goes there at the appointed moment but, as he sadly concludes, “It turns out wanting something doesn’t make it real.”

But hundreds of people decided to make it just that. “Dream Girl” was enough to bring Alex Norris here all the way from England.

“I saw that, and I got my credit card out and booked the plane ticket,” said the 34-year-old IT-support technician, who participated in a tape-measure length competition during the gathering.

early xkcd looks different, more suicidal but less annoying

do people who like xkcd also tend to have a copy of Wall and Piece by banksy? i suspect so.

Other things like by xkcd types:

J-Pop

XKCD is for those of us who realize life is not all about happy endings and trophy wives and who is better than who and all that shit. It's for those of us who live in reality. It's for the intelligent. It's for the insane.

guys, i've never heard of xkcd before, but it's obviously great. it poops all over its 90s/00s poorly-drawn misanthropic forebears, none of which have ever been good.

However much that Pinky Tuscadero up there's dad beat him as a child, it wasn't enough.

xkcd is for those among us who don't wallow in self-pity. It's for those of us who are filled with awe for the ordinary, not those who seek to fill emptiness with bland fiction.

It's for people with an intelligent sense of humor, not a chip on their shoulder.

ACHEWOOD REALLY ISN'T THAT FUNNY AND I DO NOT SEE WHY PEOPLE LIKE IT SO MUCH

Where's my Cat and Girl? Halfway up, far right (assuming "funny" can also mean "existentially stimulating")?

reading about xkcd has led me to shit like

otm

matt is like an inch above and to the right of xkcd

Milfwich sounds like one of the opposition teams in Roy of the Rovers

bad man

don't worry, there will be a disclaimer: WARNING - This comic may be unsuitable for nerds

lol "why is ok for athletes to eat food but not ok for athletes to take steroids" is the sort of thing only a genuine idiot who was stupid and not smart and didn't understand simple things would say

fwiw the "explain xkcd" page for this comic states:

"This comic is one of many instances where Randall attempts to trivialize sports."

this was posted in another thread but i hope everyone sees these

that's great

these are actually funny

the baseball diamond one is really good

Took me a few comics to realize they were parodies.

btw, they don't advertise this around i think, but the xkcd dude provides hosting to pbf basically gratis because he likes the strip. so there's that too.

by basically i mean totally.

haaaaaaaaah, these all rule

also gives money to a "battered women's group" iirc (so it's okay for him to talk about rape)

no that's the oatmeal weirdo

hosting pbf is pretty menschy

bet PBF dude was a liberal arts major

he was a film student if I remember correctly. low man on the totem pole

i'm sure his actions in real life are mostly commendable, but his comics are mostly pish

loving the parodies btw

http://i.imgur.com/XcqMC.png

Yes, loved those, who made them?

can someone explain the lasagne whisperer to me

Findus beef lasagne withdrawn after tests show high level of horsemeat

let's replace "horse" with "lasagne" in a movie title! because it's topical

lol duh

i didn't get it either

http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/bonding.png

never been funnier

supposed to be poignant i think.

made me laugh

I feel ashamed of myself for mentally parsing that code.

ok this is very funny, but not in a way that takes much cleverness. it just sort of takes being in the niche of actually being willing to make that joke.

C. G. P. Grey's Youtube videos: classic or xkcd?

So this happened?

http://www.wired.com/underwire/2013/08/xkcd-time-comic/

WHY DONT YOU JUST READ THE SAME XKCD COMIC 15 TIMES HUAHAUHAHUAHAHAAHAH

dude discovered animation

Cooooool.

something so depressing about a guy being that absurdly ambitious with his expressionless stick figures

little stickman all grown up

http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/rejection.png

they had this guy on Colbert last night and I don't know if I've ever seen a guest less comfortable

that was funny, i saw it in the hospital this morning

literally the first xkcd thing to ever make me laugh, am i officially lame now?
