Anyone else really fucking hate xkcd.

This cancer has been around for a decade and it just won't fucking die. I have to see it everywhere because most of the internet loves it. Literally all it is, is:


1) Pointing out very obvious shit as if it's profound

2) 8th grade level of knowledge about some field of science designed to make the reader feel smart


3) Typical SJW bullshit with the typical setup of the totally "smart" character totally owning the stupid "bigot".
I never saw one I thought was even worth a chuckle. Why is this unfunny cancer so popular and why won't it JUST FUCKING DIE?
>>
Yes. The level of smugness is unbearable.

Sometimes internet comics really make me worry about my pro-capitalist mindset because they truly are the only media driven solely by consumer demands and they all suck shit hardcore.

>But nothing will ever change, that cycle of mediocrity isn't due to some obstacle. It's who you are

>The thing standing in the way of your dreams

>Is that the person having them is YOU

This pretty much sums it up for everyone. Randall is obviously black-pilled, or maybe grey-pilled with a sort of materialistic optimism?

In any case, XKCD is fucking great

>>34018486
He's proving the "mysoginistic" argument that women can't ever come up with such eloquent comebacks though, by putting these words in the female character's mouth as a man. It's like he wants to embody women to act more like men because even he is aware of their inherent weakness and retardation. This cuck fucking hates himself for having a penis.

I don't see how this is a bad thing. I see the author as a white knight in chastity who would never do anything sexual with a woman. He's protecting women from all the thirsty horny creepy betas. That's not bad if he stops women from getting spoiled and receiving attention.

However, I wonder what he thinks of women sluttying it up. Does he approve of it? Does he encourage it?

This cartoon makes the mistake of assuming that most women are intelligent. Like most people, most women are morons and shit like this works on them.

>>34019062
It's not a meme. The only beers that taste good are the faggot flavored beers. The fact that there are people who unironically drink beers like soda or tea or any other beverage and not as a means to get the euphoric high of being drunk is baffling to me. Why would someone get home from work, go into the refrigerator and willingly drink a bottle of cold, bitter liquid to relax?

Liquor is so much better even though it kinda tastes like soap.

>>34019050
>Hate to say it but this one is spot on.

No, it's not "spot on" because nobody actually drinks beer because they think it tastes great, they drink it to get drunk or tipsy. Sure, they're advertised as tasting good sometimes, but in real life nobody talks about how amazing beer tastes. The creator (and you apparently) is just too autistic to realize this.

Correction, he used to be a programmer. Where he programmed is irrelevant. Sure, it means he lives in the 21st century, but it's not like programming is something that can't be taught at schools and done by wageslaves.

He's not a liar, just an idiot who fell for the " Randall is so smart" reddit meme.

Never got why everyone thinks he's so smart. The alleged high IQ certainly doesn't show up in his shitty comics and he never did anything relevant in his field. He's just a smug talentless nu male of average intelligence for a college educated male.
