Something is very wrong with the title text. 172.68.65.240 17:09, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Yea, I think it's because the title text on xkcd.com is actually designed to change the font midway to make it more jarring. Cgrimes85 (talk) 17:13, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
As explained in my correction summary, I corrected title text to adhere to the comic - it uses UNICODE U+FF21 - U+FF3A for dramatic effect instead of normal letters. See http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/ff21/index.htm or https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/UFF00.pdf 141.101.96.187 22:38, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Earth quakes that influence few people are less likely to appear in global news and be confirm-able as the comic implies.162.158.74.27 00:42, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, although the jokes are funny, poking a little fun at wikipedia's super serious style, I feel they are a little overused. Nonetheless I still add them occasionally... 108.162.219.214 23:00, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

I don't get why someone suggested that Black Hat is Beret Guy in disguise. The nefarious nature of Black Hat's 'premonitions' is surely entirely consistent with Black Hat's personality...162.158.92.238 19:04, 17 January 2018 (UTC)


Common dreams have also been the main topic of https://xkcd.com/557/ and https://xkcd.com/719/ . 172.68.51.88 21:17, 17 January 2018 (UTC) .tnm

Is it just me, or is Blackhat's speech seems very not blackhat like... Linker (talk) 23:10, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
