If you haven’t read XKCD…

XKCD Is probably the most amazing comic I’ve ever read. I frequently find myself reading the comic and then sending instant messages to all of my friends who do not regularly read the comic. Truth be told, the comic has a fairly specific demographic. The main site boasts “A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.” with a disclaimer at the bottom “Warning: this comic occasionally contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children), unusual humor (which may be unsuitable for adults), and advanced mathematics (which may be unsuitable for liberal-arts majors).” Personally, I rarely find myself laughing out loud at comics and the normal reaction was something like a fleeting thought of “that’s cute” to possibly a stifled chortle. But when I found this web comic the normal reaction went right out the window, it brings a smile to my face and I find myself actually laughing at these.

In case you were wondering NO XKCD did not tell me to post this shameless plug. I just think it’s a wonderful site that more people should know about.

My most recent favorite:

And the whole setup is just a trap to capture escaping logicians. None of the doors actually lead out.
