I've add a CITATION NEEDED for the medical appointment because in many countries and in the past Soviet Statesit took that long and so is a questionable claim I've been waiting for Randall to do a comic related to the DART mission. I think I'm going to have to be satisfied with the title text being inspired by it -- altering the orbits of the earth and/or moon would be infinitely harder.

- Whatever the old soviet joke is (probably related to the American myth that Canadian medical care takes longer?) it's behind a paywall, so no one can read it anyhow. 172.68.66.45 19:58, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
- It's probably the one about the Soviet citizen finally getting permission to obtain a washing machine/fridge/car/whatever, but being told that it would take five/ten/fifteen years to be delivered, or so. "AM or PM?", he asks. Because, as he explains, he has the plumber/electrician/decorator/... due to start work that particular morning. (It's probably on this page, or a close version of it, but that's a read and a half and I think I'll go through it later.) 172.70.162.155 20:34, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
- From the article:
- Mr. Reagan then told his current favorite [joke], about a Russian who wants to buy a car. A Matter of Delivery
- The man goes to the official agency, puts down his money and is told that he can take delivery of his automobile in exactly 10 years.
- "Morning or afternoon?" the purchaser asks. "Ten years from now, what difference does it make?" replies the clerk.
- "Well," says the car-buyer, "the plumber's coming in the morning." 172.70.174.41 23:08, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
though it says Black Hat is rejecting the invitation sarcastically, considering Black Hat it's also possible he's planning something else for the total eclipse, such as playing a prank on people who don't know it's coming, or messing with the meeting under discussion. 108.162.241.51 17:31, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
- Or planning to be actively messing with the eclipse... 172.70.85.97 18:59, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Here’s a source for moving the Earth or the Sun requiring vast amounts of energy: https://qntm.org/moving. It doesn’t really cover moving the Moon though. 172.69.33.133 02:23, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
- Alternatively, just use 6 cells over 111 generations: [1] 172.71.94.135 07:10, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
- And with that breaks the 104-comic streak where we never saw Black Hat. I'm pretty sure that's the longest ever. ISaveXKCDpapers (talk) 03:52, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
- Is this Megan or Danish? 172.69.33.117 05:28, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
Can somebody please calculate the minimum needed energy amount, if you start now? --172.70.242.157 11:09, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
- And how many probe impacts that would require. 172.71.178.5 08:41, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
pretty sure the explanation needs to be sanitized of invisible control characters or zero-width whitespace - there were several edits that added thousands of characters but did not result in a visually different page, and those edits were never reverted --172.70.115.30 12:43, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Somebody should add one of those links that redirects to comic no. 2045 to avoid confusion (I'm not super familiar with Mediawiki) Mushrooms (talk) 09:06, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
- Not as important, because just trying "2045" sends you there (where there is the {{distinguish}} template pointing you here), yet you have to actually try a bit to land here instead of your true intent to go there. But I just now put one here that tells you about that one, anyway.
- Not sure how many other comics using a
{{distinguish|...the other comic...}}
are similarly reciprocated on their 'less favoured sibling' without checking. Could be inconsistently done, if I recall correctly how it was recently set up as a kind of disambiguation measure. 172.71.178.17 10:21, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
It claims that 'The moon being hard to move' needs a citation. I know it's a joke, but I have wanted to do the kinetic energy calculations since I saw this, so I give you this: You want a citation? I'll give you a citation! SqueakSquawk4 (talk) 15:58, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
This comic should be a grand example of classical classholeism on black hats part. plattermonkey
Reminder that dates after 2038 are blacklisted by Google apps thanks to a certain bug... --172.71.182.245 20:51, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
