How hard would this really be? I feel like we could do this by messing with different orbits and just crashing the moons into each other.Anonymouscript (talk) 20:42, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Hard if you don't want to change everything into molten lava temporarily. 172.71.166.61 08:21, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
I think 'temporarily' doesn't sound too bad... ;) 172.70.91.72 10:34, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Voice actor speculation

Since we're rapidly approaching number 3000, let's designate voice actors to the xkcd cast.

Beret Guy could be voiced by Michael Kovach, doing the same voice as he does for N from Murder Drones.

Black Hat could be voiced by JamsDX, with the same voice he did for X in his cover of Obituary.

And so on. Caliban (talk) 07:46, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

It would help if I knew who either of those were, or even the things that they are described as doing. And I suspect my own prospective choices would be similarly unknown to you. ;) 172.70.85.62 08:35, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

It's seemingly just a random speculation. There are the what-if YouTube videos, but they are merely narrated, not voice-acted for characters. It's like "who would you like to play <character> if/when they film <favourite book>" as a fantasy (if not outright fantastical) casting decision that says more about the answerer (whether they think of Sam Vimes as more Clint Eastwood or Pete Postlethwaite, for example) than the source material.
