There has been talk of GLR's minions watching the OTT, for mustard and such. Does anyone have evidence from outside that he actually uses minions other than his own sweet self? I always assumed xkcd was a very personal project, not a team (other than a web team, perhaps). Anybody know anything? Not...

Capella (in Auriga) is the very bright star in the lower left. Aldeberan (in Taurus) is in the lower right. Pleiades above and left of Taurus. Mirphak (in Perseus) is above Capella. Algol is to the right of Mirphak. Algol is a famous variable (eclipsing binary in this case) star discovered way back...

Am I first one to notice that alt-text is now "..."? Sometimes I feel like I'm watching "Groundhog Day". Something/someone in the OTC should be named Ned Ryerson. The MegaCastleRaft looks kind of like a wagon train, at this distance and without the benefit of colour or shade to ...

I wonder if Paul McCartney is a Time Waiter? He just played Seattle a couple days ago. And yes, he's been playing "Band On The Run".

The OTC is either a Magnificent Artistic Achievement or a Gigantic Waste Of Time. So I hereby coin the acronym MAA|GWOT and take the blame for whatever heretical splinter religion that leads to. I wonder if when the NSA notices GWOT and that it means Gigantic Waste Of Time rather than Global War On...

One thing the fora software doesn't do well is make the signatures easy to skip. So when a siggy is very long it gets in the way, especially when the post it is attached to is very short. Sure it does. User Control Panel > Board Preferences > Edit Display Options > Display Signatures. Although that...

Speaking of music, "Time" and "Run" are tracks from Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon . The start of "Time" actually fits the start of Time pretty well IMO: Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way Kicking aro...

Optional decree: Think about non-cake food that might be available in the OTC.

That's like writing "don't think about cake". Now I cannot think about anything other than cake. But if I were able to think about non-cake it probably would be tasty maple-bacon something.

Moved from previous post: I haven't been following the language decoding too closely, but do we know if either group recognizes the others' language? Cuegan haven't said "Ooh! That's Beanish, too bad we never learned it." But the Beanies know of a translator (Translator Jerry, or TJ for sh...

Since what's being said is shown in these strange characters, then it's from the perspective of the speaker, not Cuegan. I'd like to see this from Cuegan's perspective, i.e., written in English characters to show what is sounds like.

@Eternal Density: Did you ever notice BlitzGirl's suggestion of "Reppa" for Niclep's sister's name? ETA: Holy Post of 7s (777). Only fitting that I have an entire heretical sentence at the top of it. Appropriately accomplished on 7/7! Come al ONG then... http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/time/5d...
