A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language
What can I say… the title pretty much covers it!
I can’t remember when I was first told about xkcd, but after I got my first “fix” I have been a dedicated fan ever since. The cartoons are clever, funny and often so true that it’s embarassing for all of us techies.
The comic is created by a guy called Randal Munroe, a CNU graduate with a degree in physics who is living out in Massachusetts in the USA. A history of working on robots for NASA might explain a few of the higher level coding jokes, and an apparent penchant for the slightly odd would explain the rest of the comics! In his own words:
In my spare time I climb things, open strange doors, and go to goth clubs dressed as a frat guy so I can stand around and look terribly uncomfortable. At frat parties I do the same thing, but the other way around.
So head over to www.xkcd.com now and start to get your healthy dose of humour. Enjoy!
