Haha.  XKCD is my favourite webcomic (along with Eight-Bit and Ctrl-Alt-Del) for that very reason.

This one is my personal favorite.

Yeah, XKCD, Ctrl-Alt-Del, and Eight bit are among my favoirte webcomics, along with Order of the Stick (Belkar FTW), Girly (Oh noes, it's a ray gun!), Sinfest, Goblins, and Dr. McNinja (More defenestration? Or are you gonna talk?)

I've been pimping A Lesson Is Learned for a year or two. I hope they come back from hiatus soon!

Out of curiosity, which is your favorite? I find it hard to choose, but I am very partial to this one.

I love  this one.
For some reason it just seems so perfect.

Although  this one is really good too.

The whole comic is just plain fantastic overall.

My favorite part about this one is the horizontal strip of "panels" stretching from the firing of the gun to the "Oh no!" I like the way they are connected.
