I'm going to go ahead and preemptively post xkcd #358:

In fact, while I'm at it, here's the next month's worth to save nickb the trouble, since he seems to feel the need to post every new xkcd comic:

I've just come back from future, there will be no xkcd#368 he will jump directly from 367 to 369.

I could tell you why, but I don't want to spoil the plot... You wouldn't forgive me if I did.

If only your ability to see the future weren't limited to xkcd

Reddit got really ugly right around the time people started preemptively submitting the next xkcd cartoons.

[brent → kf]

I would argue that this practice only got annoying when people complained about it every single time it happened.

correlation vs. causation, etc . . .

I upmod xkcd stories and then click on the comments to watch people complain about them. It makes me smile that people have such wonderful lives that they can worry about such silly things.

That doesn't make me a mean person, does it?

Isn't it interesting that a sweet and innocent comic like xkcd makes such great flame bait on news.yc?

Perhaps it's true that you can catch more flies with honey than with... oops, wait a second...

[Goladus → mechanical_fish]

I wouldn't call 9 responses much of a catch.

[Goladus → andreyf]

That doesn't make me a mean person, does it?

I wouldn't say that. I would say it is a rather selfish abuse of the voting system.

i actually quite enjoy the discussion on each individual comic on Hacker News. It seems a bit more structured than the forums on xkcd.com.
