Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Yeah, I really like the infographic ones he's done. Not funny, but amazing. Someone on the Internet is wrong is totally my favorite though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Someone is wrong on the internet is just...right. It's not funny, per se, and I can barely even call it clever because that's not the angle--instead, it's hella perceptive and succinct as all get out, though, and it's a fuck of a shortcut and I'm glad it's now common (righteous) lexicon.

Apparently the opener of "You know, I've heard some very good things about your technical expertise here at [ita !'s workplace] in the IT department" doesn't automatically make people IIS subject matter experts. I'm somewhat disappointed in that failure.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So now you can apply for your job? Hooray? Relatively speaking, hooray, I guess. This whole thing has been such a farcical nightmare.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

No love for "Sudo get me a sandwich"? That's the one I find myself quoting most often.

I have no one to quote it at--but that is the only one I wear. I think it's when I really truly noticed xkcd as something I needed to go back to and read regularly.

Oh thank goodness, Suela. Good thing you didn't flounce, now!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

PHEW!
