Locke and Demosthenes, Powered by WordPress

Because that’s the kind of reaction that Locke and Demosthenes’ blog would get in the world you and I inhabit. I mean, if I can’t get billions of readers, how could they?
(Yes, I know. I don’t have any readers because I never post anything good.1 Still, I’m going to keep telling myself that I am the best blogger ever. Please be gentle with the fragile ecology of my delusions.)
From the ever acute and accurate xkcd.
UPDATE: It occurs to me that this post is really about me complaining that I don’t get enough visitors, and uses a reference that less than 0.00003% of the population will understand. I think I may have inadvertently put my finger on my problem, so to speak. Silly bald man.
- Except, apparently, for that Philosoraptor on Rule 34 post, which still accounts for more than 53% of my readers. ↩

That philosoraptor is very good. I wasn’t even particularly disappointed to find it after posting a musing regarding the converse of rule 34 and realizing I was being both inferior and unoriginal.

I like the comic sketch. Its very “easy-viewing”. Nice break from text and photos.

It’s a great reference. Ender’s Saga is a great series. Sadly this comment will most likely not be seen as this is an old post, but… oh well.

Au contraire, our comment spies are everywhere!
Glad you liked the comic. XKCD is full of great, nerdy stuff like that.
