xkcd pwns teh internets

by tigtog on May 2, 2007

I don’t know why any of us are even bothering to pretend that xkcd is not our new insect overlord (except for Cory Doctorow, who escaped in that bloody balloon).

Excuse me. I have to go and save that map, open it up in Photoshop and expand it so that I can read all the labels.

I want an anthropomorphic dragon.

I obviously need to specify the serene and stylish (don’t forget kewl) sensei type anthropomorphic dragon, not the comic-relief bumbling sidekick type anthropomorphic dragon.

Although, that one looks like he’s singing the blues – choices, choices.

(For those unused to xkcd comics, do make sure that you move your mouse over the image to read the alt-text tag-gag. If you’ve disabled that mouse-feature, a right-click on the image and then clicking “properties” should enable reading of the tag-gag).
