antrin Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 In a past post, I tried to interest oaky in this cartoon series, thinking he may enjoy the sometimes abstruse mathematical, scientific and computer references as well as the daft and silly ones - including many about "relationships". Just stick figures, but there's a variety of characters you do get to know. Man in hat being the scariest, most unpredictable. I have just stumbled upon perhaps the most amazing single example ever - of pushing cartoon boundaries: https://xkcd.com/1110/ After reading/looking at a cartoon, if you drift your cursor over the image - there is (mostly always) a further quip that is an added laugh or is informative. In the example above, there are three simple upper pix. The bigger pic below invites you to click and drag. I was doing so for quite some time. Brilliant and amazing - with a few wee gags chucked in. An ideal cartoon for the Close season, until you stumble across a white (or coconut) dug turd. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintnextlifetime Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 I really am surprised that we are almost 1 full week into our close season and no one has mentioned the coconut dug joke or the white dug shite you see as , you move around the area in your Raleigh Chopper (right enough you might have to wait a wee bit more for the new strip). .

salmonbuddie Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 I really liked the universal ingredients list, it's the simple things that amuse me. Is it wrong that I'm still laughing at this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like my cartoons in a maximum of four separate panels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had another look at it today but I just don't find it funny. When I was learning Python programming, one of the projects was to access that site and download all the cartoons in one go. Didn't find it interesting or funny then either. Just not my cuppa tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antrin Posted April 7 Author Report Share Posted April 7 Another mind-boggling cartoon - this one probably only apt for obsessive gamers. https://xkcd.com/2916 I got almost immediately lost and baffled… but intrigued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite an interesting game, I enjoyed that. It also saved me from Faraway Ranger's constant trolling and tedious pish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
