That might just be my favorite xkcd comic.
The second one is where they invade Richard Stallman's house...
-
the one a few days ago, about sending the bobcat instead of the office chair on ebay cracked me up. Especially the alt-text.

Me too, although they're all good. I wish "sudo make me a sandwich" actually worked!

It doesn't?! Damn!

I keep thinking of sudo as sumo, as in, japanese technique of wrestling results from your machine.
-
I love telling people to type in "sudo", then complaining they spelled it incorrectly ("pseudo"). Great fun!
-
oddly enough, the xkcd forum points out that the idea for that comic might have originated here: http://worsethanfailure.com/Comments/Now_Hiring_SQL_Injectors.aspx#128181

Sweet! I'd never thought to look at the alt-text, now I can enjoy XKCD in it's fullest.

If you read xkcd with firefox you may need to install the "Long Titles" extension to be able to read all the alt text on some of them.

I'd been using firebug 'inspect element' for that - where can this extension be found?

Google long titles
Personally when I don't have the extension installed (like when I use one of the other computers in the house) I just use view selection source.
-
Also note that it's fixed in Firefox 3.0, so we won't need the extension for much longer.
-
And I only see it on two sites that use longer than average titles, so it's not worth it to me grabbing another extension for.
