"Purity"

This XKCD strip had been bothering me for a while.

...so I fixed it.

Weird

Creepy

Ok, so here's today's XKCD, published at 9:00 pm:

And here's today's PVP, published at 10:00pm, just one hour later.

What. The. Hell. Two completely different webcartoonists publishing cartoons about very similar subject matter on the same day at almost the same time.

I hear if you say "Munroe Kurtz" into a mirror five times, the ghost of teh interwebs will devour your soul.

Life imitates XKCD.

I haven't resorted to linking, the lowest form of blogging, in a while, so I'm entitled. Anyways, here's the comic:

XKCD Parody.

Go Fly a Kite.

This is really cool. I want to do it, too.

Somehow not as impressive as the original.


Please tell me someone else laughs at this besides me.
