Okay, Buffistas I'd like to hear votes for the five greatest xkcd comics.
What's your top 5?
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, and the other update:
I found a black miniskirt that I think works well with the tie. It's not tight or anything, but I couldn't find my character shoes and initially grabbed the granny boots, but it looked more coquettish than businesslike, so I went back to the Doc Marten Mary Janes, which don't sound businesslike, but...they work.
The guy who is snazzy called me snazzy, and I asked him what knot he used for his tie, and—no surprise there, full Windsor. He never does anything else. A guy within earshot said that he really shouldn't have gone full Windsor with that collar (which means there are more things for me to learn) and a chick within earshot (who was patently not wearing business formal) said "There are different ways to tie ties???!?"
So, you know, stuff.
Why do I have grey hose? This just looks ashy. But it's all I have.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm a fan of "I'm not slacking, my code is compiling," because my coder husband likes that one. Edit: [link]

I don't know what it says about me that I am completely, 100% unsurprised at Consuela's job's job posting fuckup. I expected that something exactly like that would happen. It's fully consistent with their bureaucracy and crappy treatment of her.

Actually, my favourites are the ones that rip your heart out about love.
Weird.

I'm still astonished/impressed by "Click and Drag": [link]
However, the Firefly fan in me needs to give props to "Action Movies": [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
When I clicked on one of your links, I also got to this one, which is pretty great: [link] But "Someone is wrong on the internet" is the one I think of most often.
