XKCD

Post by Cirtur »

I have posted this here because XKCD contains things you could call art. What are your thoughts on the first thing to come up when you search webcomic in Google?

Personally I think it has become much too preachy and it no longer makes me laugh. I am almost done with it.

I still find it funny. Then again, I am preachy myself, arent' I?

Yeah. I'm inclined to agree with Cirtur. It's always been kind of preachy, but it hasn't got any less so since it got an audience. But there are gems every once in a while (Monday's was pretty good, I thought.), so I keep reading.

The preachy ones aren't always so bad, either. This one is still probably my favorite XKCD, since I can relate to it so well.
Police said they spent some time working out if they could charge the man with being armed with a weapon, as technically he was armed with part of a fish.

I didn't think Monday's was particularly good, primarily due to the punch line.

It's sad, but I haven't laughed at XkcD in weeks, maybe months. He hasn't done any sweet ones in a long time, and the humor is either not being innovative or getting worse; I can't tell. I used to love you Randall... Alright, so I still love you, but your comic should be improving. Take some pointers from Zach Weiner. I hear he's good.

I was never a huge fan of XKCD, it was ok. Very hit or miss and as it's gone on, it's been miss after miss.
Doin' podcasts before they were cool.

You know what? I take back what I said. I just read a bunch from a couple months ago that are friggin' awesome. Still, I admit the decline.

I enjoy XKCD. I haven't noticed any real decline, but I've never really been super into it either.

I don't laugh at anything. I just stare at it intensely to convey my emotions.

And when was the last time you stared at XKCD in order to convey that you found the joke amusing?

That would be this one. Of course, Cervantes is the greatest Spanish author of all time, so that might be why. Attached, please find a picture of what is hanging on the wall behind me. Unless Websense has blocked it, in which case HAHAHA Khazd you are a loser.
