Randall does research for his comics all the time. Dreaded Anomaly Send a noteboard - 07/10/2010 10:55:28 PM
It's a comic by a nerd for nerds, which warrants some intellectual activity from time to time. Sorry that doesn't gibe with the little preconceived box in which you've decided to place any media that presents itself as a comic.

Saying that "things have jumped the shark" has jumped the shark Helene - 07/10/2010 04:01:49 PM 963 Views
"jumped" past tense. Joel - 07/10/2010 04:05:56 PM 829 Views
If you are seriously going to attempt to make a discussion out of it, I think you don't know what Helene - 07/10/2010 04:50:27 PM 904 Views
I know what it means, and think it applies here. Joel - 08/10/2010 08:25:49 AM 855 Views
Yes, I'm already bored of that expression. *NM* snoopcester - 07/10/2010 04:06:57 PM 352 Views
I like that he did this Camilla - 07/10/2010 04:20:05 PM 898 Views
Fair enough; just seems a little repetitive to me. Joel - 08/10/2010 01:35:40 PM 926 Views
Uh. I don't think so. Nate - 07/10/2010 04:24:06 PM 855 Views
Joel - 08/10/2010 01:36:33 PM 812 Views
Nah. It's an update to an extremely popular comic. The internet's changed, so it's reasonable. Gher - 07/10/2010 04:43:01 PM 832 Views
Meh. Joel - 08/10/2010 01:38:06 PM 857 Views

Well it's their comic BlackAdder - 08/10/2010 05:28:55 PM 868 Views
Yes, but it's my right to decide whether it amuses me. Joel - 08/10/2010 05:41:54 PM 1336 Views
Pah to you Floffe - 07/10/2010 04:46:16 PM 942 Views

You think doing research for an xkcd strip is a BAD thing? Darth_Katie - 07/10/2010 05:58:43 PM 902 Views
I suppose work consists of what a body is obliged to do. Joel - 08/10/2010 02:00:43 PM 852 Views
XKCD jumped the shark a long time ago. Ghavrel - 07/10/2010 06:40:54 PM 1009 Views
You can't recover from jumping the shark. That's what it means, it's the beginning of the end. *NM* Helene - 07/10/2010 07:04:55 PM 373 Views
Sounds like you're as mad as a wet hatter. *NM* Ghavrel - 07/10/2010 08:22:54 PM 388 Views
Don't you throw your farberisms at me! *NM* Helene - 08/10/2010 07:44:05 AM 392 Views
This time I agree with Helene; it's the Point of No Return. Joel - 08/10/2010 02:02:23 PM 872 Views
I've found about 3 xkcd's mildly humorous... Wulf`gar - 07/10/2010 06:43:56 PM 1001 Views

+1, I usually find about 1 in 4 to be even vaguely funny Isaac - 08/10/2010 12:20:10 AM 868 Views
I often find them funny, but there's a lot of metahumor. Joel - 08/10/2010 02:35:03 PM 855 Views
Randall does research for his comics all the time. Dreaded Anomaly - 07/10/2010 10:55:28 PM 836 Views
It's true. Clover - 08/10/2010 01:23:07 AM 861 Views
The first version was based on guesses where he couldn't find official info *NM* Floffe - 08/10/2010 06:04:45 AM 402 Views
And that's cool, it's just not necessarily FUNNY. Joel - 08/10/2010 02:36:57 PM 859 Views
I guess I like neat comics about as well as LOL comics. Clover - 08/10/2010 07:05:58 PM 883 Views
Ultimately, I do, too, I'm just not sure "comic" is the right word. Joel - 08/10/2010 07:59:39 PM 849 Views
Guess it depends how hard you wanna work for your funny. Joel - 08/10/2010 02:39:05 PM 803 Views
