Also where did your papers go on the last panel

by **WolfieMario** » Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:50 am UTC

I don't recall what exactly inspired me to make this

Consecutive Owls

"And it's only when they're lined up like that...?" "Yeah, large gaps kill the mood."

The line "I think your fetish is weird as hell" has some serious fad-potential, imo

by **SirBryghtside** » Thu Feb 23, 2012 4:52 pm UTC

Did you draw all of those owls? Because those are some impressive consecutive owls.

Thanks

I'm actually not too skilled at drawing, so I mainly used the above as an excuse to practice

Oh god, please don't make that into another "better than vista" / "listen, I wouldn't worry about that" / "I've never been turned on in my life" style micromeme.

They haven't stopped making frozen pudding pops, have they?

Wait, wrong comic. (Although given the seeping of a couple of xkcdsw memes into SROMG, how long before the opposite occurs?)

Actually, I *would* worry about that. Why? The micromemes will only multiply, like their copy of the Kama Sutra has a mistranslation, crowding together into a giant Katamari ball of references, never to be stopped even by BHG's carebearstare.

Huh. I don't think it used to, but it certainly does now.

Anti aliasing in the middle attack!

by **WolfieMario** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 6:40 pm UTC

I saw that xkcd last night, and it didn't look like that. It's funny, since after seeing the change, I came here with the intention of posting something along the lines of what SirBryghtside did

by **SirBryghtside** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 7:44 pm UTC

It's fixed now, but now we have that SW for posterity ^_^

by **Elvish Pillager** » Wed Feb 29, 2012 8:14 pm UTC

My first thought was to make an XKCDSW of the original version that I saw (the aliased one) with a slight blur applied in any image editor to smooth it out.

I am bothered that my protest of something becoming a micromeme has itself because a micromeme. It reminds me of the time a person I knew in high school said "You can't expect everything you say to be quoted."

I can't read that first one you posted.

And should the 66 be a 69 in the second one?

by **WolfieMario** » Sun Mar 04, 2012 9:16 pm UTC

Not the first animated xkcdsw, but I still feel proud of making this.
Pacman Code

^Link to YouTube video above. Skips the original comic, since you have hopefully seen it

Link to a 5.35MB GIF
Note: below is only a stillframe! Click a link above to see the animated version!

I shudder to think what happens when it reaches the 256th level.

~~I'll be uploading video and stillframe versions later, as I realize a 5.35MB GIF is a bit ridiculous.~~ Done.

Also, I know that's not how the blue ghost is supposed to behave; you try figuring out how game mechanics would translate when placed on the surface of a lake

. Bonus points if you actually make it into a game after figuring that out.

They didn't update anything after Aug 2011

by **phlip** » Mon Mar 05, 2012 4:39 am UTC

No, it's still being updated sometimes, it's just that that's where he's caught up to... he's still got a lot of backlog to work through, and people who keep posting more comics are only making it worse...
