ITT: We make xkcd slightly worse.

[m42a]

EDIT: Or do you mean when people do this? In that case, they might as well just write the comic number, yes.

That one. You'll notice how http://forums.xkcd.com/search.php?keywords=slightly+worse+536&terms=all&author=&fid%5B%5D=2&sc=0&sf=all&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search doesn't turn up that post.

I am ashamed that I didn't go to the trouble of letter by letter replacing, but I'm at work.

Spoiler:

I can't understand what you're saying. You don't have lips for me to read.

I couldn't agree more. Bonus points for excellent use of irony.

From 537. Spoilered for length.

Nice work Luthen.

Riduckulous put me over the edge into chuckles...

Haha! I like that one for the arrows and the subtext-in-caps.

Obvious source is obvious: 537.

Oh, the alt-text is a reference to another piece by me. This one.

m42a: Approved.

From 275 and 274

Spoiler:

Dude, that's not right. Do you even know who Mrs. Lenhart is?

[m42a]

Dude, that's not right. Do you even know who Mrs. Lenhart is?

Um... The mother of a teacher? From 135, 416, and 499.

Am I missing something important?

Okay, so evidently this is a real person.
Okay, this is Kira's mom.
Sorry if I offended.

To make it up to you, I present this obvious edit:
From 184

Spoiler:

Math. It works, bitches.

[RealGrouchy]

Oh, I see. I thought you were suggesting Kira was the mom. Which would be weird in a number of different ways.

Carry on.

- RG>

[m42a]

Oh, I see. I thought you were suggesting Kira was the mom.

Oh no. The character in 135 and 499 is clearly referred to as Miss Lenhart, whereas my comic references Mrs. Lenhart, and I'm placing the edited strip in the same time frame as 275. I also assume chronological order and strip number have a positive correlation. Yay for implicit assumptions.

[luketheduke]

amidoinitrite?

Also, ninja'd much? I can't remember it, nor believe nobody had the idea yet.

[bigglesworth]

You are most definitely doing it right.

Obvious source is obviously 538, less obvious source is 341.

Seriously, who would expect us to believe that?

Sorry that I couldn't get the panels to match.

Making it worse: fail.
Making it brilliant: 9/10.
