Slashdot Mirror

Doesn't take devices. It's the fact that internet access is so seductively available on the same system where I'm trying to get work done. Just a little break . . . . oh, is that the time? (instead of XKCD see http://www.dorktower.com/tag/t... )

Epic! Googled it, there is indeed a Firefox version of that, too. Which is now installed. This rivals the Youtube Moronizer for hilarity in simplicity, text-modification-wise. (For context, see also: http://www.dorktower.com/2010/09/24/5585

Yeah, I definitely don't think it's a good idea to rely on any technology in my butt, either.

Here’s a good rendition of the opening song:

And what the heck – not XKCD, but.

There is a statute of limitations for spoiler alerts, you know?

The story was written more like a DnD backstory for the language professors' hobby group.

You've been reading Dork Tower recently, haven't you...

John Kovalich summed it up nicely: http://www.dorktower.com/images/comics/DorkTower942.gif

I know Sarah Jane got her own K-9 in that one TV special long ago ("K-9 and Co."? Can't be bothered to look it up...) and then got a new one from the Tenth Doctor, which made a small number of appearances... But still, isn't it a little strange to use K-9 as a memorial for her when K-9 didn't appear on Doctor Who until after Sarah Jane left?

John Kovalich summed it up nicely.

Start at the beginning, then work your way through the middle until you reach the end. Then stop.

And then keep coming back every MWF for the updates. :-) That is one of my favorite comics ever; very well-written/drawn, and almost never misses an update.

To keep this from just being a "+1," I'll share a few of my other favorites to lift OP's spirits:

http://irregularwebcomic.net/
http://www.basicinstructions.net/
http://nodwick.humor.gamespy.com/index.htm
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/ootslatest.html
http://xkcd.com/ (obligatory)

Then there's www.failblog.org and its sister sites. YMMV with individual items, but overall there's fun material there.

Lots of archive material to trawl with those. Enjoy!

The only thing nicer than seeing women smile is hearing them laugh.

Indeed.

There's even a Dorktower of it.

As a fan of Steve Jackson Games, I can say that they need to do more advertising. I didn't even learn about Chez Geek until 2003. It was some random friday night, and having viewed one of my friend's IM profile, I saw he had added a link to dorktower.com so I was reading the comics. As I was doing so, one of my drunk fraternity mates stumbled by my room drunk and saw what I was reading and exclaimed "Hey, those are the Chez Geek guys!!" and I was like "Chez what now?" and he told me about this awesome card game. Now I'm the other of Chez Geek and 4 different expansion packs, as well as several other different SJ games. Apeaking as a member of SJ games target audience (AKA, ubernerds who've never had a date that didn't grow on a tree), they need to expand their advertising a bit more to reach us.

Let's not forget game nerd comic Dork Tower.

Dork Tower by John Kovalic is my must-read webcomic experience. I want my comics to be comical and John makes me laugh on a regular basis.

It's all clear now. Like Cringely said, I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft turns out to be paying for SCO lawyers. Consider the declarations of Ballmer about OSS being "a virus", and now all this thing about Linus being candid with patent ... This is yet another attack on OSS, funded by Ol' Mighty Bill!

--Dork Tower

• PVP Considered the best by many (and me)
  
• Kevin and Kell Very inoffensive, but quaintly interesting.
  
• The Adventures of Mayberry Melonpool A take on Trek. Goes way back.
  
• Nodwick A D&D henchman's life.
  
• Dork Tower Dorks like you and me. Good, but strips get rare these days.

I can't believe not one person mentioned PvP. Also, Angst Technology and Dork Tower are worth reading on occasion.
And kudos to the people at NetComics (mentioned a little higher up), found this prog a few weeks ago, very nice...
