XKCD is….
1. Saving a few seconds at a long red light via elaborate and questionably legal maneuvers.
2. Having someone call your cell phone to figure out where it is.
3. Calling the Ackermann Function with Graham’s Number as the argument just to horrify mathematicians.
4. Instinctively constructing rules for which floor tiles it’s okay to step on and then walking funny ever after

Stick figures also spend time being generally abused and laughed at in “Cyanide and Happiness” cartoons.

those “idiots” are the ones that are smart enough to get the jokes. go back to school, get a real education and it just might be funny.

calling someone who can actually understand jokes about things like quantum physics an idiot *b/c you yourself can’t understand even basic math* makes you the idiot.

Yeah, lemme guess, you also listen to indie rock so you can look down on other people and be a pretentious little shit all the time, running around shouting about how much a certain band sucks just because they got signed to a label?

You hate XCKD because a lot of people like it. Well, a lot of people frown upon suicide. Go on, be different again, it makes you “cool” and “enlightened”. This time, you’ll have my support.

That said, XCKD is one of the most gratifying webcomics on this series of tubes.

Hey, it’s not your fault that you don’t understand the maths, some people just aren’t born with the ability or don’t get the education. Stick in there. Have you tried a bridging course?

XKCD…I’m not sure how to describe it with something other than ‘Calvin and Hobbes’ for the geek generation. You’ll probably have to see it for yourself.

Anyway, would ‘Impersonating Dio Brando’ fall under ‘being injured by machinery’? Who knows how many hapless stick fighters end up getting smashed under a Road Roller…

Would they be called “stick figure”?

You got to mention slipping on wet floors, which look more like they are either lounging on a beach or having their ankles bitten by snakes.

(ie. look up Slippery floor signs)
