Why are people still sucking XKCD's cock like it's actually funny/humorous?

Why are people still sucking XKCD's cock like it's actually funny/humorous?

the whole thing is now either moralising shit or Le Kool Reference.

...

Woah contrary contrarianism

Just a quick reminder

checked

thanks for the reminder that xkcd exists, I've missed a few and needed to catch up

they are often good for a chuckle.

Lantern City USA here I come.

>nice guy
What did xe mean by that?


>Why does my phone autocorrect "xe" to "he"?

> utter disrespect
That's a pretty self centered point of view, snowflake. Some people like to be reminded of their own past experiences.

She means that guys that don't take charge and smack her round are chicken.

pretty good

Hahahahaha, what a fucking faggot.

>taking pictures of the sunset is utter disrespect
to who?

>to who?
*whom

That is some serious cringe

Pseduointellectuals like to circlejerk around the simple dumbed down content coming out of XKCD's ass so they can feel like they belong to us true intellectuals

Haha what a faggot

*whom'st'd've't

>look at me guiz I'm too edgy for xkcd comics

>Why the fuck do you care how someone else enjoys a sunset

For the very same reason that I am annoyed when I see a fat fucking landwhale in too few clothes blubber around. Just like with mouthbreathers making pointless photographs just for the social likes, I don't mind they exist, just that they exist where I have to see them.

It's fun noticing how everybody is sucking off xkcd when years ago that wasn't the case.

Hint: xkcd is sucked off by reddit

LOL

Holy fug

come to my house and bust down my door all you will get are bullets

is this supposed to be humorous or something
what's the joke

It's mostly supposed to be informative, the joke is from it being silly.

I really cannot bear xkcd. You can't go on any tech blogs without it popping up at some point 'relevant xkcd' like they're super smart for posting a fucking link. Ultra-conventional and obvious masquerading as quirky and novel. Lame lame lame. I despise it.

Your phone is smarter than you. It's a sad world we live in.

Fedora guy is crazy and want use real world violence to attack some idiot post on forum.

It's cringy sometimes, has good tech jokes sometimes. Pic related.

IMO you need to channel your inner normie sometimes. Not everyone at work is a Sup Forumstard, which is a good fucking thing.

xkcd is usually pretty good, I don't get the masturbatory "muh intellectually inferior" hate it gets here.
I don't agree with Randall's politics either, but did you guys know you can just *skip* the comics you don't agree with? Mindblowing.

GP BTFO'd'st've't, how'th willst've he't ever'd've recoverth'st'e?

yeah sure nerd, maybe powerpoint bullets

>le too smart for le xkcd

wow get with the times loser, it's now fashionable to ironically unironically like xkcd

Sup Forums is mostly idiot manchildren who work low-level codemonkey jobs and/or swap their smartphone out ever 6 months. they did first-year science courses in uni (bio, phys, chem) and so they think that xkcd humour is "below them" because "they already get it".

...

>implying they're even enjoying it

The photos certainly aren't taken to document or enjoy a moment.

These "photographers" are just looking for a decent photo opportunity that'll get them recognition on social media. The pictures aren't for personal enjoyment, but for personal social gain.

This
It pop-ups frequently on theregister.co.uk forums and it really fucks up any conversation
Funny thing is, xkcd started popping up there together with the pro-hilary, anti-trump, anti-brexit shills.

Is social gain not enjoyable?

El Reg has forums? Are they in any way good?

At the time of writing this, the last four XKCD comics were funny to me.

I also disagree with Randall on politics, but that doesn't mean that he can't do tech jokes.

>the pro-hilary, anti-trump, anti-brexit shills
So people with a brain?

humor that soley consists of science references with no context and looking down on groups of people (who are as nonrealistic and stereotyped as possible) is fucking lame no matter whether you get the "INTELLIGENT SCIENCE REFERENCE" or not


Hoho that's like Goldbach's conjecture right there! *snort*

god im so smart i understood that one Xd

nothing better than super pretentious humor that isn't even slightly clever

>dropped

When it's funny, it's funny. And I'd say it's funny more often than it's cringy.

You can point to stuff like and , but they're the exceptions more than they are the rule.

They are pretty good sometimes, but I hate when it's referenced by normalfags it real life. It's even worse if they pretend like they came up with the joke or treat the joke as fact.

This desu. People who only know what 'sudo' is from that one comic are the worst.

I really enjoy it when people put xkcd comics in their presentations or articles. However, even better are animated gifs and other cool memes like the Fry one or the alien guy one! AWESOME! There's only one thing I like more: Put a clip from your favorite video game or geeky series in there. Absolute genius! Haha!!

I've reread the early strips recently and what I realized was that
1. xkcd was never THAT good. Unlike, say, Problem Sleuth it doesn't hold up. Its popularity had more to do with it being in the right place at the right time with the right themes. It was nerdy, but not too nerdy -- just enough to charm its early audience of romanceless STEM freshmen.
2. xkcd has always been hopelessly, painfully beta and annoyingly progressive. I felt like my testosterone level had been lowered just from reading it.
3. xkcd did, in fact, have its moments. Pic related.
But, seriously, .

• lol

who even likes xkcd at this point? ledditfags?

People who are Learning to Code.

...

xkcd has been trash for like a decade now

The what if stuff he did was sometimes entertaining.

(((you)))

This thread is shit. Post something actually relevant like dilbert

...

soo relatable xD totally me lmao!

Literally OCD.

>When you're so hipster, people enjoying things you don't like triggers you

What's next, we hate in abstruse goose?

>Earth, Sol System, Milky Way
XDDDDDDD so funi dood! your such a nerd LOL

Webcomics. No matter how hard you read them, they give nothing back. Unfair.

woah haha le epic reddit penetrating psychological analysis ftw. bet you just sent loads of misogynists crying after totally seeing through their personalities. this awesomeness is why i'm starting psychology this fall.

Abstruse Goose is derivative and just as, if not more, unfunny, but at least it isn't trying to be as cute about its autism. The result is less painful to read.

kek
they have a couple good strips, but they can be counted on one hand
now they are mostly terribly bad

The experimental ones (Time and the exploration games) were fun. I think Randall Munroe is better at such things than he is a straight-up comedy.

because I admire the author's breadth of knowledge and I like his brand of humor

I will acknowledge I'm a dumb and don't know all the tech and physics he (or OP) does, but even then I don't see anything in his comics that would warrant the hate.

Smugness

you just don't like it because he's pro Hillary and reddit likes him
