hehe, I love that comic. My favourite part is how you have to hover your mouse over the picture to get the caption that makes up the second punchline (or in some cases, make sense of the comic itself. :) )

Hmmm, I'm a CS major with an almost-minor in bio. Who do I root for, the robot revolution or the cephalopod revolution??? Argh, conflict of interests!

Oh my. I have been reading XKCD for 2 years+ and never noticed the mouse hover! I now have to read again all those comics. :lol:

If it helps you feel any better ... I only noticed that part recently too, and then I had to go back to the beginning and read them all over again ... :lol: It was like finding a whole new comic! :)

#207 made me spit tea out my nose. We pulled a number one on the way to work this morning, and it probably looked exactly like the image!

Why not both? :mrgreen:

I think I had to install a "Long Titles" add-on into Firefox to see the whole text for some of them (as some of them are rather long). Not sure if this is an issue with IE or Chrome though. You can also right-click/properties to see the whole thing but that's .. ah .. not as convenient as hovering of course!
