Comics 1139-1144: Everything Is Meaningless

1139. Trying to imagine a world in which any child would think that this was frightening and not just unimaginably lame. Failing. F

1140. The only good thing about this was the people complaining that he forgot to make dates like Christmas big, as if this were an oversight, like he just forgot that Christmas existed. F

1141. Negative bonus points for the "but caaaancer" line. F-

1142. no. F

1143. Can't be bothered to look up what he's referencing here. F

1144. It's like he wrote a sequel to 859 after it achieved unexpected commercial success. Like all unplanned sequels, it is even worse than the original. That's saying a lot. F

In other news, remember that redux guy? Me neither. But intrepid commenter "David" has sent me a link to a tumblr where he's reposting all of the guy's old reviews, if you're into that sort of thing. Relive the past! You can never escape it.

219 comments:

  1. Do you ever think that this sort of commentary is unnecessary at this point? If you have no desire to put any effort into what you are writing, why bother continuing?

    3. I meant that legitimately, and not as a critique on you. I definitely wouldn't expect you to keep up with a comic you dislike, even going as far as to regularly comment on it.
      I understand that this blog has a dedicated readership, and that brings in revenue from various ad companies. I was just curious if you really liked writing these reviews.

    4. the little one-sentence ones provide a reasonably enjoyment-to-effort ratio.

  2. I find it kinda cute how Rob is always on the defensive when it comes to the quality of his reviews. I think it tells you something about what xkcdsucks once meant to him! I wonder if he's aware?

    1. "YES MY REVIEWS ARE CRAP BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I DON'T CARE ABOUT XKCD, NOT BECAUSE I'M A BRAINLESS HATER!! THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I COULD WRITE GREAT RANTS AGAINST XKCD AND I STILL COULD IF I WANTED TO!! BUT I DON'T CARE!! I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, NAMELY THAT I REALLY DON'T CARE!! HOPE THERE'S NO MISUNDERSTANDING!!"

      That's how I see it, at least.

    2. so is the going theory that the reason i write lame one-sentence reviews because i am incapable of doing better? i confess i haven't kept up

      Delete
    3. i mean in a sense that would be accurate, as doing more would require me to do more than exert five minutes of effort every other week and i just don't have it in me anymore. even those five minutes are somewhat trying, but comments get locked on two-week old posts and i'd hate to just let the place die.

      i'd have handed over the keys a long time ago if carl weren't too afraid of losing his adsense dollarzzzzz to give me admin access.

    4. I was just saying that you're pretty sensitive about criticism. You stopped writing proper reviews, and seldom post in the comments section, but you almost always respond to criticism. I don't really get why you're still somewhat emotionally invested in this blog now that it has become what it has become. How many worthwile comments were there in the last thread?

      Delete
    5. i basically only read the comments that come in the first few hours after posting, and then some random selection of them after, but in my experience there are never worthwhile comments. i mostly keep posting for the benefit of the IRC channel, because there are a few infrequent guests who would i think stop coming if the blog were to die. also i keep it running for the eventual return of ALTF.

      that, and i still find it amusing that people are still telling me that i'm lazy, or that complain that i have "nothing better to do" than post here, which is probably why i respond to criticism more than anything else. there's a huge gulf between perception and reality, and that never fails to entertain me.

    6. I hope Rob is more honest with himself than he is with us. A lack of self awareness is such a sad flaw.

  4. About Christmas... dates like Christmas aren't big because people call them "Christmas". The criterion was to call the dates by name, so people would have to call Christmas "December 25th". They don't do that much. That is why the number is small.

  6. Does God exist?

    ———-
    A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. They eventually touched on the subject of God.
    Barber: I don’t believe that God exists.

    Customer: Why do you say that?

    Barber: Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can’t imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things.
    ———-
    The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again.

    Customer: You know what? Barbers don’t exist.

    Barber: How can you say that? I am here. I am a barber, and I just worked on you!

    Customer: No! Barbers don’t exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.

    Barber: Ah, but barbers DO exist! That’s what happens when people do not come to me.

    Customer: Exactly! That’s the point! God, too, DOES exist! That’s what happens when people do not go to Him and don’t look to Him for help. That’s why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world.

    3. I'm not religious, but I'm always amazed by how often people forget that the Christian narrative isn't about reward in the material world. This life is supposed to be shit. Cleaving to God's word gives you strength to endure it until you are rewarded in the afterlife.

      Delete
    4. ".....Does God exist?....."

      The question is invalid.
      An affirmative answer can be verified. A negative response cannot.

      A statement, or question, can only be valid if it can be either verified if true and falsified if untrue.
      The question, "Does god exist?" or "god exists" cannot be proved false.

      So, Fay K. Straumann, fuck off!

    15. Hm, no need to dig deep (not that that was particularly deep) in order to show OP's atheist bait doesn't work: what if that guy on the street just liked his beard and dirty hair?

      Still, OP deserves some Kirk Cameron points for that, perfect for circle jerk.

  7. Revised version of 1143.

  8. I was dumb enough to bother looking up what 1143 referenced. It's still beta/not publically available. So Randall is just being deliberately obscure. Sorry, no GOOMHR for a game only a handful of people can actually play.

    Frankly, I'm surprised anybody still reads xkcd, given how insanely popular playing Megakiure (see #721) has become. According to the NYT, the average adult spends 6 hours a day playing Megakiure. Oh wait, I lied, Megakiure still hasn't been released to the public either. Good job predicting trends Randall.

  10. Hmh. xkcd has been declining for ages but it's comics like 1139 (Rubber and Glue) that are really abysmal in my opinion. It feels like Randall's just projecting his power fantasies over childhood bullies on xkcd.

    5. If it was because your eyes are arranged horizontally, then closing one eye would change how the reflection appears.

      Best explanation I can come up with is the mirror doesn't actually turn the light around. The light beam that hits its right side is still on on the right side. What's special about the horizontal axis is that you yourself rotated on it to see the light that's behind you. If you were to rotate on a vertical axis (stand on your head), then everything is flipped vertically instead.

      That was actually an interesting thought question. Too bad Randy didn't make it up.

  19. 1145 was actually quite a good science-themed comic, on a par with some of the classics. 1146 made up for this by being everything that is bad about xkcd. The art serves nothing, it has no purpose. It's just two stick figures that look the same. This is not just minimalism to make it easier to sympathize with the characters. This is just vagueness.

    And speaking of vagueness, the actual things that they're saying are incredibly vague problems that could apply to everyone. If Randall thinks he is special because he has these problem, then he's in a sweet delusion. Either that or he knows that they are arbitrary and vague as possible, and he's going for the maximum GOOMH-bait (wow, been a while since anyone said that here) in a single comic.

    The standard faults are all there. post-punchline dialog - check, Wall of text - kinda, floating heads - one pixel away from it. I'm also not sure which stick figure is supposed to be talking in the alt text, not that it matters, since they're both the same character.

    5. 1145 may have worked...except only an idiot wouldn't have an answer for this. Sure, according to the Rayleigh scattering explanation, the sky should be violet...if the sun radiated every wavelength of light at equal intensity.

      What If he were just like Rob? The latter says "the little one-sentence [reviews] provide a reasonably (sic) enjoyment-to-effort ratio".

    2. Randall has happily ignored the 'toil' in churchill's opening line and so has decided the he was just listing bodily fluids. He has added loads of other things to this list instead of continuing with the actual speach. Just imagine if Churchill has actually said these things then you will find it funny.

      Delete
    3. I'm imagining it.

      Still not funny.

      It would be funny if toil was redefined (a la santorum) to become the noun for a particularly vile bodily fluid, thereby making Churchill's speech Hiliarious In Hindsight. (Don't you dare click the link, fuckers) Of course if that were the case, it would be self-evidently funny, and wouldn't require an xkcd comic to point it out. Randall would probably still make one anyway.

  39. Hey everyone, I have this great idea. I hope you're listening.
    Okay.. so, you know that speech that Winston Churchill made to the beleaguered and already war-weary British public as they once again descended into war with Germany? You know, the one which helped them come to terms with the looming cost of yet another war which would kill millions?
    Imagine... imagine guys... imagine if when he said "blood, toil, tears and sweat" he just continued to list bodily fluids! LOL I know right. Fucking hilarious.

    ...What do you mean "toil" isn't a bodily fluid?

    3. Oh, I thought he meant tears as in gashes as in pussy. I had imagined Churchill all these years as some kind of gentlemanly pimp. And Germany as like the whore who wanted a bigger cut and got served.
