A Tribute to XKCD

May 7th, 2007, by Hilko

I’m a big fan of the webcomic xkcd. It has the cleverness, sweetness and poignancy of Calvin & Hobbes, my all-time favorite comic, but is peppered with a good amount of ‘beta science’ and general geek culture.

Here’s one of my favorite comics, titled The Raven:

The Raven Rap
(The Raven is one of America’s most famous poems, written by Edgar Allan Poe, one of my favorite writers)

Some more favorites:
Reno Rhymes (For all you Johnny Cash fans)
Ninja Turtles
What XKCD means
Escalators
Baring My Heart
Chess Photo
Appropriate Term
The Difference
Pet Peeve #114
Kite
Kitty
Small Talk (very, very true!)
Philosophy
