I challenge you to talk to me, and argue with me, as opposed to tossing insults, and brushing me off as a hater. And, if you don't accept, all of YOUR site's fanboys will still praise you.

He probably could have tried to ask someone, but apparently he did not. He also didn't notice for six months, so one might think that some of the blame lies with him. I mean, he found out that all her ex-boyfriends thought that about her. But apparently he didn't bother to check until it was too late."<br /><br />I'll agree that this comic isn't particularly funny, but I hope you realize that the above bit I quoted ISN'T THAT UNUSUAL. I mean, if you're in a relationship with someone who is a crazy liar-type, you don't realize it immediately, and if someone tells you "your girl is crazy" you're gonna be inclined to trust your Significant Other over your friend. Sometimes it takes months for the house of cards to fall apart, dude. <br /><br />also, "Who knows! All we know is that he's totally wacky and acts just like any other xkcd character!"<br />WRONG. I dunno if you actually read what White-Hat-Dude was saying, but all he said was "Who would agree to run it?" That doesn't strike me as particularly wacky.<br /><br /><br />I'm down with you Carl, and I'm down with what you do, but you can't get mad at Randall for errors (of the punchline/art/factual variety) and then turn around and blurt out incorrect things in response.

Joan of Arc was not a "religion geek" and Frank Sinatra was not a "music geek." I think the idea is basically to say "enjoying Dungeons and Dragons makes you a geek" when it's really "people who play Dungeons and Dragons tend to be socially awkward." Yes, that fact is completely due to social norms, I imagine, but it's still true, and it's not an excuse.<br /><br />Also fuck satire; nowadays it's just used as a means of useless ideological galvanization instead of actually motivating social action 95% of the time. Want to change the world? Don't draw a political cartoon of Barack Obama or George Bush - how about you actually get involved in politics in a meaningful way, at whatever level, or give blood or build houses or something?<br /><br />This blog isn't "satire" and it wouldn't be even if it were just an elaborate joke (which it isn't). It is no more or less than a venting ground for a bunch of (largely) like-minded people's opinions. Don't try to think this is some Oscar Wilde critic-as-artist shit, or conversely some subconscious Freudian sexual frustration when it's just people making fun of something.<br /><br />I am literally angry with rage right nowAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-75732829009972913422010-09-26T10:34:43.406-07:002010-09-26T10:34:43.406-07:00the idea of a live-action xkcd movie irritates my ...the idea of a live-action xkcd movie irritates my hate glandsR.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-41903629685142773402010-09-26T10:04:56.354-07:002010-09-26T10:04:56.354-07:00Fuck you Carl.
