"[a] vitriolic and bitter collection of unwarranted nastiness about a silly and harmless comic."
Welcome. This is a website called XKCD SUCKS which is about the webcomic xkcd and why we think it sucks. My name is Carl and I used to write about it all the time, then I stopped because I went insane, and now other people write about it all the time. I forget their names. The posts still seem to be coming regularly, but many of the structural elements - like all the stuff in this lefthand pane - are a bit outdated. What can I say? Insane, etc.
I started this site because it had been clear to me for a while that xkcd is no longer a great webcomic (though it once was). Alas, many of its fans are too caught up in the faux-nerd culture that xkcd is a part of, and can't bring themselves to admit that the comic, at this point, is terrible. While I still like a new comic on occasion, I feel that more and more of them need the Iron Finger of Mockery knowingly pointed at them. This used to be called "XKCD: Overrated", but then it fell from just being overrated to being just horrible. Thus, xkcd sucks.
Here is a comic about me that Ann made. It is my favorite thing in the world.
I hope you never stop receiving these delightful commentaries on the modern world
ReplyDeleteI concur.
Deleteme too
DeleteWhat!? But you're supposed to be... dead. Oh my god!!! The Jews stole Rob's account!
DeleteOy vey, I've been found out.
DeleteYeah like I said the last frame would have sufficed. Two now to get the xkcd stickman innovation in. I like the idea that [insert whoever is supposed to be the evil guy in xkcd] is a wily Jew.
ReplyDeleteblack hat guy
Deleteor should that be
BLACK YARMULKE GUY
No actually Hasidic Jews are often referred to as black hats! GOOHMR I'm also antisemitic!!
DeleteSuddenly about half the xkcds make a lot more sense.

ReplyDeleteWhy was the original drawing drawing flipped when it is clear that Jews are LEFT wing Marxists looking to undermine RIGHT-thinking America. I smell a conspiracy.

And why is that shaker of salt. محمد ياسر عبد الرحمن عبد الرؤوف عرفات القدوة الحسين, not wearing his oddly-arranged keffiyeh - you know, the one meant to resemble the map of "Palestine"?
ALTF, I know you're part of the rich white male plutarchy but I didn't have you down as pro-Israel (except as required at public events).
Deletecaptcha: Randsds. Even the captcha generator doesn't care about him any more.
"....ALTF, I know you're part of the rich white male plutarchy...."
Delete"rich" as an adjective modifying "plutarchy"?
Fucking tautology!
And might makes right when it comes to part of the state formerly known as 'The British Mandate for Palestine'.
Tautology? Merely echoes of the spatial past.
DeleteIf might made right then there wouldn't be any Jews to inhabit the historical territory of Palestine.
The 'specious past' you mean?
DeleteMight makes right.
When you lose that might, you lose the squired right.
I'm not sure if ALT-F has ever acknowledged my presence before - is this some kind of milestone?
DeleteHas - has she finally noticed me?

The main problem was that Germany was prepared to pay more to IBM than America ever would. Had the latter kept up the contract, there could have been a simple change of management at the various rendering plants.
DeleteWould have to be careful not to fall foul of TUPE regulations, but de Gaulle and the socialist post-war British government wouldn't have had any problem teaming up and handling the bureaucracy.
Are you mad?
DeleteWork in The City and riding bikes with Boris on the Clapham High Street addled your brains?
Think back about one or two years, you ignorant Limey cunt.
Truth be told, the reverse is the case
I'm so tired
Tired of waiting
Tired of waiting for you
"....The 'specious past' you mean?...."
DeleteThe specious past is temporal.
The above is meant for Ann.
DeleteAnd it's a 'millstone', not a 'milestone'.
Ah! well a-day! what evil looks
Had I from old and young!
Instead of the cross, the Millstone
About my neck was hung.
A few days ago I rewrote those lines for an entirely different discussion, but with, "Not a bird in this tale - the Daily Mail".
Delete*takes a visit down memory hole*
Your syllabic cadence is fucked!
DeleteThe Daily Mail?
Oh dear!
A horrid braino, sorry - I'd originally written "No bird".
DeleteAlthough albatross/millstone? Oy!
The poem was meant for Ann.
DeleteAccordingly, her being a swarthy Welsh tart and all, she is quite aware that 'millstone,' in that consonant-philic and vowel-phobic cacophony of sequential grunts known as the Welsh language, is pronounced, 'ann girl's dross'
Besides, do as I say, not as I do.
Hmmm.. no.
DeleteDo you speak Lao Song?
Do you speak Fuck Off?
DeleteYour sperm is in the gutter.
Your love is in the sink.
Your greasy fingers smearing
Shabby clothes, I think.
I wish I was Welsh. I'd have a glossolalic sing-song Celtic accent instead of this hybrid of Kate Nash and Reggie Kray that the Bow Bells cursed me with at birth!
DeleteYour baby 'as gone down the plug'ole
Your poems are as of a mug's
The clodhoppinh rhymes are so behind the times
But don't think that I give a fugg (give a fugg)
".....glossolalic sing-song Celtic accent....."
DeleteYou mean like the keening ululations of Tom Jones?
Meh!
I'd prefer the mellifluous and dulcet tones of Audrey Hepburn (gaw ahn...shift yer bloomin' aahrse!) any day.
"...Do you speak Fuck Off?..."
DeleteLittle Blue, how do you do.
Your smile looks like heaven
But your eyes hold a storm about to brew.
Also I don't want to put consonants in Ann's mouth but I think he means Cerys Matthews.
You don't back a horse called Striding Snail.
DeleteYou don't name your boat Titanic II.
Yes I fucking well would!
Cerys Matthews?
Fuck me! An ug-chub Cymru cunt if ever there was one.
I went to a *thing* recently and the management dragged her in to perform on the last day. She did a fair La Tarara, which you of all people should appreciate.
Delete"...An ug-chub Cymru cunt..."
DeleteEvery body eventually becomes boring - women who start off ugly evade disappointment. So their providers must maintain a supply of fresh 16 year old protégées, which you of all &c.

I read through Randall's "What If?" articles. I don't know how accurate they are, but they're a lot more entertaining than xkcd. I can even understand people finding them enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll bother reading them again. I'm sticking to xkcd, which I can always denounce as being absolute shit.

Jew loving women shouldn't have ANY rights, sorry
DeleteThere's a triangle for that.

DeleteWhat, non-Americans?

DeleteThat's what I said.

DeleteSurely the only people who might mistake ALTF as intelligent would be people who have never had to sit through over-talkative undergraduates trying to sound impressive at tutorials. I've always figured her/his intention to be a parody of those garrulous bores, anyway.
DeleteALTF is both intelligent and a garrulous bore.
DeleteMaybe the person behind ALTF is. There's no way to tell. The ALTF persona, however, sticks to superficial namedropping. An awareness of a wide variety of topics is no substitute for an understanding of them.
DeleteFast recollection and sorting of information is half of intelligence.
DeleteWe've no evidence from here that ALTF has, say, the pattern-matching ability that would allow it to regularly make successful invesments, conquests in love, etc. So that half could be missing, and might explain its attachment to its "tutor".
But half of it is certainly there. And it's very entertaining watching people nip at its heels. The fact that it presents itself as female means it has the edge for winding up insecure men.
Of course, ALTF may not be any one at all. (Take that grin off your face.)
Ann Apolis:

Funny, but I was talking about extreme pedants.
Instantly whipping out your pedant penis is half of intelligence, evidently. :c

DeleteCalvin lay there in bed, next to his tiger. His fourteenth birthday was tomorrow. He was getting older, puberty striking at his mind, voice, and body. He kissed Hobbes on the cheek, puling him closer and thanking him for being his friend.
DeleteThen it happened. It had been happening often since he was thirteen and he had no control over it. His erection tented his boxers, pressing against his friend's rump.
"Stop.." Hobbes mumbled with a growl, pushing him away.
Calvin turned onto his back, pulling his under shorts down and revealing his standing pillar, about five inches. Average, he figured.
He shook Hobbes awake. He didn't wake easily and grumbled and growled, but eventually sat up. "What, Calvin?" He asked angrily, wanting very much to go back to sleep.
"I love you."
"I love you too.." Hobbes said awkwardly. 'What is this about?' He wondered.
"Do you really love me?"
"Yeah, why?" Hobbes sat up further, sleep forgotten.
"I want to mate with you.." Calvin blushed.
"Wait! What? You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air.
I whistled for a cab and when it came near the liscence plate said "fresh" and had dice in the mirror. If anything, I could say that this cab was rare, but I though "nah, forget it, yo home to Bel Air"!
I pulled up to the house at about seven or eight, yelled to the cabbie, yo homes, smell you later. Looked at my kingdom, and I was finally there, to sit on my throne, as the Prince of Bel Air.
Sorry, Anon@7:54. It's impossible to suck the goodness from Calvin&Hobbes. Better people than you have tried.

ReplyDeleteAnn, this is your mother here. How dare you post filth like that? Utterly unacceptable! I demand that you delete it right now, or I will disown you from the family.
DeleteNo, this is your mother.
DeleteAlso this is what "quirky" art should be like.

ReplyDeleteInb4 when will we forget xkcd?
ReplyDelete(autocorrect already has... ;-( )
Anyone notice there's been a lot of interview comics recently?
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see Randall finally admit that the supernatural is more interesting than science. Next step is admitting than Christians are better people than him. Next step is suicide.

And they wonder how it happened

Unresolved passion? More like repressed obsession.
DeleteWell, that's what the bespectacled would like you to think. I see only tedious sadomasochism and a challenge issued by the author to herself to use more adjectives than any novel ever written.
I think WH's worst legacy is that it gave Ayn Rand the confidence that a logorrheic crone with no reedeming message can still amass a popular following.

DeleteAnon 3:53 - well she's a woman, what else did you expect?
DeleteDearest Emily,
DeleteIf you are male, you are indeed one big thrush-festooned and prolapsed cunt and a half.
If you are female, you should be ashamed.
If you are none-of-the-above, You are lucky.
Dearest ALTF,
DeleteUnresolved passions and repressed obsessions are symptoms of a mind with hunger that cannot be sated by this world. I love romance, danger and mystery - and what I have been given thus far is thin soup for one such as myself. Let me just say that I relate to her, as means to defend myself from your judgment.
I often worry that what I seek, I will never find.
Also, I was joking.
Love,
Emily
DISREGARD THAT
DeleteI SUCK COCKS!!!
Dearest Emily,
DeleteYou love romance, danger and mystery and have yet to be sufficiently regaled with such? Have you considered self-inducing a state of schizophrenia? Or better yet adopting a dissociative identity disorder? My friends who have done just that tell me their hunger(s) are well and truly sated.
It is not possible, however, no matter the number of identities you might engender and harbour, to defend yourselves from my judgement.
Also, I was not.
Love,
ALTF
DISREGARD THAT
DeleteI SUCK COCKS!!!
Dearest ALTF,
DeleteI did not realize the trap I was walking into with this conversation and thus am at a stark disadvantage. Can I raise a white flag and live to fight another day? I suppose part of the problem is the word "given" implied that I believe I deserve to have life bring out a cart of deserts to choose from and I was dissatisfied with what was presented to me.
Also, I recognize and appreciate that you don't care, but I fought hard and struggled to be who I am and to have what I have. I have one identity and I earned it - so, if you want to judge me that is your prerogative...
Love,
Emily
Dearest Emily,
DeleteYou are at a disadvantage only if you choose to espouse such a position. Life is meant to present to you a cart awash with deserts from which you may freely choose your distractions. It is your right, nay, your duty, to be dissatisfied with the array if it does not please.
You are quite incorrect if you adjudge that I do not care. I care deeply. My caring is unquestioning and unconditional. My level of endearment is unswerving and complete.
That you have 'fought hard and struggled to be who [you are] and to have what [you] have' is very distressing for me. I was accorded all that I could possibly ever need or want without as much as uttering a word. My judgement of you is not a matter of prerogative; it is an obligation. A Noblesse oblige we of the 'U' owe to you of the 'Non U'. A 'White Man's Burden', as it were, though I am neither of those.
Salutations,
ALTF
DISREGARD THAT
DeleteI SUCK COCKS!!!

DeleteA cart of deserts? A world through a grain of sand? Multiple universe theory?

Scarce does his nascent fancy fly,

Dearest Emily,
DeleteYou have not wandered into a place where 'out of your league'. In keeping with your sports/baseball metaphor, perhaps you might consider changing the position you play?
You intoned you were 'bored' and wanted 'attention'.
Perhaps you should have been more specific as to the 'type' of attention you required?
To embrace the concept of irony or sarcasm, and the use thereof, is a necessity if you wish to remain.

Dear ALTF,
DeleteActually this is more or less the attention I was looking for. I am often a lurker here (not out of a passionate hatred for XKCD, but merely as someone with a desk job that can get slow occasionally) but tend not to get involved in the witty repartee that goes along with being a member of this niche group because:
1) abject terror, how can someone like me survive in a place of whimsical madness/genius like this?
2) the bar was set high with Pseudonyms and I was afraid I'd be mocked because my feeble attempt at one. I thought going with my given Christian name would give a signal of submissiveness so as to spare me from the barbs. Maybe I should rethink that idea.
3) i had, and have, nothing to add.
By the way, today's xkcd is not funny but I consider it decent because it at least makes a coherent point. Lowered expectations indeed.
All the best,
Emily
"12:16 Whitman scoffs at your sneaky syllable"
Deletewhy must everything be about you? :c
Emily,
DeleteNo-one here is who they seem.
Yours,
You.
Dearest Emily,
DeleteYou do not belong here - you are much too normal and well-adjusted.
"....a place of whimsical madness/genius like this?...."
Que?
Maybe you do belong here! That's quite humourous.
As far as the unlettered and innumerate cunts around here are concerned, the moniker 'niche' group is quite apropos. The niche is normally occupied by allocoprophag-ots.
Submissiveness is no protection; I wish it were. It is taken as a sign of weakness and if XKCDsucks is anything, it is red of tooth and claw.
Forever respectfully yours,
ALTF
Emily,
DeleteIf only all women were as easily impressed.
Inadequately yours, etc.
I like the way ALTF plays the feminist when she's not the ultimate macho dream.
DeleteFeminist???!!!???!?
DeleteFuck off, cunt!
I hail from a matriarchal society wherein the word 'feminist' has no currency.
You're right about the ultimate macho dream bit though - don't you wish you had my 'flanges'?
'Flanges' - female variant of 'stones', 'balls' et cetera?
I like the way ALTF posts the same picture of a woman in a bikini on several posts on several blogs, all of which feature implausible narratives containing conspicuous descriptions of how universally she is loved and admired (and a recurring novelty transfag).
Delete".....I like the way ALTF posts the same picture...."
DeleteI didn't post it, my tutor did.
And those fucking narratives are actually mild compared to what the animal could describe.
That red swim costume?
Helps with your corrosive 'pully, pully, grunt, snore' though. Innit?
I'm in email contact with the cute thing in yellow. Do you wish to communicate with her/him too?
Ermmmmm.....
DeleteAhhhh.......
Not Laa Laa, the other one in the yellow swim costume on another of my tutor's myriad blogs.
Though if you want Laa Laa, I'm sure Ann Apolis could arrange it - he is a Brit after all.
what other blogs is ALTF on? I would like to become like her (she is my hero) so cyberstalking seems the best method of learning her tricks.
Deletelol right
DeleteWhere am I and where will I be?
DeleteI'll be all around in the dark - I'll be everywhere. Wherever you can look - wherever there's a fight, so hungry people can eat, I'll be there. Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there. I'll be in the way guys yell when they're mad. I'll be in the way kids laugh when they're hungry and they know supper's ready, and when the people are eatin' the stuff they raise and livin' in the houses they build - I'll be there, too.
I don't know why, but Emily is beginning to sound more and more like an ironic parody of our ironic parody of ...
Deletethat could not be further from the truth. I am sincerely fascinated by the culture that has evolved here and would like to be an "insider". Because I lack certain qualities that would allow me to seamlessly slide in unnoticed, I am hoping that honesty and earnestness will ingratiate me with the denizens of this blog despite the fact that those qualities are usually mocked here. I may lack the guile and sense of irony needed, but I can learn :)

DeleteDearest Emily,
DeleteBe careful about that for which you wish.
You will NOT slide in seamlessly and unnoticed.
A) You are female - your oestrogen will betray you.
B) You have an excellent command of the Queen's English - you are, by definition, an outsider amidst the unlettered gomerel here 'bouts.
C) Have you seen the movie "All About Eve"?
You remind me of the titular Eve.
And I am Margo, and of course, Miss Claudia Casswell too - obviously. I will watch as you insinuate yourself into Rob's blog and supplant me.
Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night.
"....You have an excellent command of the Queen's English - you are, by definition, an outsider amidst the unlettered gomerel here 'bouts...."

DeleteBeing wrong was always Carl's intention?
DeleteYou are right, it WAS.
