1146: Honest
explain xkcd: It's 'cause you're dumb.
(Redirected from 1146)
| Honest |
 Title text: I didn't understand what you meant. I still don't. But I'll figure it out soon! |
[edit] Explanation
The phrase "let's be honest here-" is often used to soften a statement that might otherwise seem crass. Before Cueball can finish his sentence, he is interrupted by his friend, who takes the opportunity to honestly state his deepest feelings.
The human condition is essentially terrifying. Try to keep up appearances.
(Angst.)

- No, other work is getting in the way. Someone else'll do it. Davidy22[talk] 11:15, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
- The honesty of this comic makes it pretty self-explanatory. I like it. 76.122.5.96 12:21, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
That 1-line explanation by anon 69.143.0.147 is brilliant.
Most people, despite looking generally competent, are just barely making it through the day.
Let's be honest, how can one tell which character is Cueball? Personally, I think this character is far too generic to bother anyways. 46.142.60.241 20:28, 12 December 2012 (UTC) madd
