Talk:621: Superlative

A clever comic, but makes it all too clear to me how much more like this guy I am, than Dos Equis man. Cut it out, Randall! 108.162.219.58 20:44, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Am I the only one who never saw the Dos Equis commercials when they were on TV, and thought upon seeing The Most Interesting Man In The World in Internet meme-age, that it was actually George Zimmer, Founder & CEO of The Men's Wearhouse? Boct1584 (talk) 14:38, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

Isn't the Dos Equis guy also ill-qualified to advertise the beer? According to him, he "doesn't always drink beer," and I've seen an image macro poking fun at this by continuing, "so I probably shouldn't be advertising it." 172.68.47.6 06:43, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

I'd disagree, If someone drinks beer 5 days out of a week, tequila one day, and abstains the remaining day then they "don't always drink beer" but still consume a decent quantity of it. "Not always" is an imprecise qualifier since it can cover anything less than 100% of instances.162.158.74.177 16:21, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

I always took it to mean "I don't always drink beer, so when I do, I'm really discerning . . . " L-Space Traveler (talk) 12:15, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

How is someone speaking French in Russian? Is he speaking French with a thick Russian accent, or vice versa, or is he just mixing words in two languages so that no one besides the Russian nobility of XIX can understand him?

That's the joke - he's Just That Good! L-Space Traveler (talk) 12:15, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

Surprised this is really the only XKCD comic to mention TF2 StapleFreeBatteries (talk) 17:08, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

so i guess this is maybe the most interesting man on that wiki. Translated ORK (talk) 09:36, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

"(not to be confused with the one with the same name here)" - I honestly don't believe you on that, even ignoring the issue of statistical chances against 'random' username coincidence (or close enough for you to notice) across systems. And they've been inactive (indeed, the account blocked) for a long time prior to 'your' arrival - so even tripping up over their existence, to make such a connection here, seems even more unlikely unless you were already aware of who you are refering to.

Add to that, that the things the various CG-personae here have been notably interested in, and the way that they 'contributed', are so similar to the contributions being made by at least some of the acknowledged current cluster of users of which you're a part. Frankly I don't care too much, as long as you keep your (possibly solo) LARPing to a minimum and don't keep dragging conlang stuff in here with no reasonable purpose. But "The lady doth protest too much, methinks". So, please, rein it in! 141.101.99.93 11:17, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

or maybe it's Zhou Chenxiao? Translated ORK (talk) 09:36, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
