XKCDs That Made Us Laugh Out Loud

Cidu Bill on Feb 21st 2011

Naomi D.: I don’t even know what this game is but I found the last panel extremely funny - especially considering that when my husband’s wisdom teeth came out, I came home to find him speaking gibberish and hallucinating on the painkillers! (that was 25 years ago, it wasn’t so funny at the time.)

Mark

Metatext: I’m a solipsistic conspiracy theorist. I’m sure I must be up to something, and I will not stop until I find out what.

Password

Cidu Bill on Sep 17th 2010

David Montgomery: I pretty much get the latest Xkcd (and its excellent lesson in password management), but what is the reference to March 1997? A quick online search provides some possibilities like Comet Hale-Bopp and the Heaven’s Gate cultists, but that is pretty obscure even for this strip. Surely black hat guy isn’t bitter about being passed over as Mother Teresa’s successor (which would be even more obscure).

War. Huh?

Cidu Bill on Jul 27th 2010

Steven Hunter: I get it, “love letters between snipers”, but I don’t “get” it. Is it a reference to a movie (or two movies “mashed up”?) Or is it some other cultural meme I’m unaware of?The Alt Text (”They offered to make me a green beret, but I liked my regular one. Although it gets kind of squashed under my helmet.”) doesn’t seem to help much either.

Nicole:

Metatext: “”Mr Rogers projected an air of genuine, unwavering, almost saintly pure-hearted decency. But when you look deeper, at the person behind the image… that is exactly what you find there too. He’s exactly what he appears to be”

Metatext: “The prereqs for CPSC 357, the class on package management, are CPCS 432, CPSC 357, and glibc2.5 or later.”

Winter Wallaby: I understand that a course should not be a prerequisite for itself, and understand the software concept of dependencies. But I don’t know of any circular dependencies associated with compiler design.
