Geeks of the World Unite


Here's proof of my geek-dom. This cartoon seems funny to me. Is it sad that I am more interested in analyzing the code rather than the punchline? Sometimes being an engineer by nature isn't pretty...

Could you explain the code? It's a pun, isn't it?

Basically, the pun is...this code, when executed in a computer would write the text 500 times...so instead of this kid writing his punishment on the blackboard like a normal person, he wrote the "code" to do it in a computer.

Here's how big of a geek I am. This cartoon is obviously old, since the code is written in C, not C++ or C#, so therefore it is just procedural code, not object oriented like all "modern" computer languages. Now that you are thoroughly bored...

Stu, when will you post a strip or something again? No pressure.

Something Dirty, you should send him some guest strip submissions. They, apparently, don't even have to be funny since he accepted mine.

Was that a crack at my unfunniness? Nah, I don't care. I'll try to think of something. See, it's really meta-funny, if you can laugh at how dumb it is.

No! I will not give in to your pushy demands!

...well, maybe on Monday. Then again, I told Vlad I'd have something up today, and we all can see how well that worked out.
