  6. Randall, that was the best thing evar. I don’t know when I’ve ever laughed so hard (and I don’t know what the bigger honor was — the Pioneer Award or the xkcd mention).

  10. Re: Lan

    When he’s in the space-combat simulator, when he’s commanding the troops, he tells them to think of the other team’s gate as “down”. Always “down”.

    Hence, when he says that the fight was cancelled because the other gate was ‘down’, it was a double entendre.

    You know, I found it way funnier before I had to explain it…

  11. Okay, super-big fan of The Difference. That’s awersome. And true.
    Have you ever thought about adding a printer-friendly version of your comics? Or am I the only one that likes to print them off and post them around the office?

  15. Your comics rock my world. Unfortunately, I must inform you that your shirts (while awesome) are not impervious to sulfuric acid. This means I will have to buy another.

  16. Hey – so about todays comic thing. I’m happy for you getting XKCD in a newspaper but I hate to break it too you… I don’t get/read the newspaper. Will XKCD still be available on the web? On your site – or on some shitty newspaper website?

    Thanks,

  23. I just want everyone to know that I had a lot of fun today. I live in the desert, just north of mexico. My best friend Andria and I found a clear runoff stream on a hike in the mountains and went swimming. It was very cold.

    Also, red cape.

  28. Jamie: No, that’s not me; just someone wearing one of my shirts. It gave me quite a smile when I saw it, though!

    Groonk: He didn’t used to wear a cape, but thanks to the comic, he does now!

  29. On the subject of The Difference: I really really like it as well and decided to trace it in Illustrator so I could blow it up to poster-size. It is now entertaining the masses in the kitchen of our EE-student house. Anybody interested in the .eps or .ai file?

  33. Just read the current comic- try http://www.straightdope.com . better than scopes, but doesn’t spend all of it’s resources on urban legends. On the other hand, Cecil is the man.

  34. You know, the only thing that disappoints me about this image and blog post is that if we actually convince bloggers to wear red capes and goggles as a matter of course….

    … This comic will be a LOT less funny 50 years from now.

    Are you kidding? This will enter a whole new level of funny! Think about it: Talking about the future leads to the future coming true! A self-fulfilling prophecy…it’s like a self-referencing system: of endless humor!
