If I remember right, Randall had some personal issues around that time, and, for whatever reason, his comic strip never really recovered. Perhaps he's not putting in the same level of effort, or perhaps he's just a more serious guy now, and unable to tap into his goofy past self.
So, how many have tried the claim in today's xkcd text?

For the future, it would be helpful to cite what you're talking about. Not all of us read xkcd.

It's gotten pretty bad. The science jokes are funny, but Randall doesn't know much of anything else. *NM*

I should have clarified that it did seem good a few years ago. I agree with that. *NM*
