Cause/Effect

Life No Comments »Time: 11:44pm

Cause | Effect

It makes me think of the Streisand Effect, but not really. Kind of like the Slashdot Effect, but not really.

How do you solve a problem like xkcd?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means xkcd?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o’-the wisp! A clown!?

In the random category… I actually saw somebody wearing the QC “She Blinded Me With Library Science” t-shirt last Saturday (QC store).

Update: This post has been edited due to objections by my conscience. Just read the comics and be happy. Thanks.
