XKCD

XKCD is Randall Munroe’s “webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language”, illustrated with simple stick figures; the ideas, which are often rarefied, hold sway. This is a world where Led Zeppelin engenders a revelation; where getting your grades in alphabetical order on your report card is more important than passing; where you put SQL code into your son’s name — and those are just recent geeky ones.

Speaking of geekiness, Randall went to a park in Cambridge a week ago and met a few people. Actually a lot of people. Actually a metric holyshitload of readers, all of whom had worked out the coordinates from this comic where one character had a dream, went to the place at the time, and nobody showed up. Obviously a different splay of the spacetime continuum.

I think I’ll make a bookmark for this one.
