*The first response is pretty self-explanatory: the original poster wants to use the Internet while on the toilet, but can't get a {{w|wi-fi}} signal there. | *The first response is pretty self-explanatory: the original poster wants to use the Internet while on the toilet, but can't get a {{w|wi-fi}} signal there. | ||

A ''torrent'' is a way to download files from a lot of different sources at the same time, thereby speeding up the process; it is typically used for large downloads such as movies, games, or Linux software distributions. Fake torrents exist, which usually contain an encrypted {{w|.rar}} file which requires a password to open. To get the password, you usually need to go through a survey through the link supplied in the torrent; in some situations, you even need to pay in order to get the password. Even after that, it's quite likely that the .rar file just contains trash files, instead of the download you wanted. |
β | *The third response is about | + | *The third response is about an xkcd favorite, ''{{w|Minecraft}}'', which has been [[:Category:Minecraft|referenced multiple times]] in xkcd comics. Diamonds are a very valuable resource in the game, and lava destroys most item dropped into it- including diamonds. A "stack" of diamond is 64 individual diamonds, because most items (including diamonds) can only be stacked to a maximum of 64 in vanilla minecraft (some items can only be stacked to 16, or even can't be stacked at all). The 64 diamonds likely represents the fruit of several hours (or days) mining. Alt+Tab is the keybinding on Windows to switch to a different program, while the default keybinding to drop an item in Minecraft is the Q key, which is immediately next to the Tab key on QWERTY-style keyboards. Thus, it would be easy to accidentally drop an item while meaning to switch windows using the keyboard. |
*The fourth response is about how the original poster mistook the grapes as being seedless. Grape seeds taste really bitter and are uncomfortable when swallowed; this is even more annoying when the seeds are unexpected. | *The fourth response is about how the original poster mistook the grapes as being seedless.
