Talk:1346: Career
Come on ... those tasks can't be random ... someone find out what is Randal referring to ... isn't Luke Skywalker doing something wiht dryer traps at start of fourth movie? -- Hkmaly (talk) 11:10, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
- The answer to your question may depend upon which movie you think is the "fourth movie" (4th episode? 4th movie produced? If it's 4th movie produced, do you count the Holiday Special? Also, should anyone, anywhere, for any reason ever count the Holiday Special?) -- Brettpeirce (talk) 12:25, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
- Im sure he is refering to The Phantom Menace, and the comic could describe Anakin, however im not sure what "lump of slight soft wax" would refer to. Spongebog (talk) 14:49, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
I wouldn't say "it's impossible that anyone would pay someone for peeling lint from dryer traps" as someone in the commercial laundry mats has to do it at some point...108.162.216.8
- Sure, but that's surely not the worker's only task. No one will pay someone just to peel lint. NealCruco (talk) 16:38, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
If you had enough lint to remove you may need to hire more than one person to do it. If I needed lint peeled I would pay a reasonable wage for someone to do it. 108.162.246.117 18:46, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
Do you think Randall would draw some cartoon just to mess with the people here at explainxkcd? I know I would! Bigfatbernie (talk) 19:01, 24 March 2014 (UTC) (talk)
biting into soft wax could also be stated as 'leaving an impression' 108.162.216.44 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- I can see why peeling lint is fun (at least for 5 minutes) as it's soft and it feels good and you can play around with it and its a rather relaxing task. The light saber stuff obviously is fun, too. But I really don't see why anyone would want to bite into a lump of slightly soft wax. Does anyone do that in real life? Sounds pretty disgusting to me. -- 173.245.53.137 19:53, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
The prior comic was about sleeping. Is this one actually about dreaming? The "dream" job tasks sound like the random events one might encounter in a dream. Pondy
Biting into wax is actually pretty stimulating to the teeth, and is quite entertaining. Try biting that soft wax they put around cheese. 173.245.55.73 23:39, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
- I think this should be mentioned in the explanation. "Dream" cam mean an aspiration or goal or something of unreal excellence to HR people and to Cueball it means a succession of images passing through the mind during sleep. 173.245.50.84 22:18, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
