Made me think of you.



It was the alt text, wasn't it?

Oh wow, I just realized I never read any of the alt text for all the comics.. Smiley: lol This makes them twice as awesome.


edit: I found the text but it doesn't show in FF, only IE.

Well worth the re-read. I did the same about a month or two after discovering xkcd.

Most of the time the actual punch-line is in the alt text. Which is a bugger for all the people who never discover it's there.

Sure it does! Do you have no script on? Try allowing the page.

Alt images with FF behave differently. Try clicking the image (they aren't links,) and I think the display may only last so long. Probably something to do about that, but I've never tried to fix it.


I just hover my mouse pointer over the image with no issue.

Maybe it was my neighbour's IE that was making me click. Insomnia hitting hard today; no rest for the angsty ;)


Tis the season! I gave in and took a sleeping pill last night. It makes the first hour of being awake in the morning real hell, but it's better than wishing I was dead all day.
