    Any xkcd fans out there? :D

    This has to be one of my favorite webcomics of all time. I think you guys might enjoy it too--if you haven't read any, I'd suggest you check out a couple of strips:

    xkcd: Wisdom Teeth

    Many are stand-alone panels or pages, but there are occasional mini-plots. Also, it gets just that much more awesome for mentioning Minecraft in today's update. :p

    Warning--occasional language, content, and computer nerd spewing that may just soar over your head. :)

    It's basically a mash of geek humor, Internet references, and science jokes. :3

    xkcd is probably my favorite website. I understand the jokes, get the references, and it's generally pretty amusing.

    My favorites are xkcd: Sandwich , xkcd: Useless and xkcd: Lincoln-Douglas though that's just a very short list, I'd list most of them if only mentioning ones I even sort-of liked.

    On the newest one, when I got my wisdom teeth out I made all sorts of random stuff in minecraft while crazy, though I never tried that...

    Once I saw somebody referencing one of those weird geeky things like the fact that moving from one point to another is a paradox...and they thought it was a xkcd reference xD.

    I like the nerdiness of xkcd though. It requires a certain personality to be one of those who gets some of the jokes though.

    Oh, yes. It's probably the nerdiest webcomic I've read, but that's one of the things that makes it stand out. XD

    That would be hilarious, actually, if they turned them into short clips or something. :\

    They do have official licensed stuff already, books and such.
