To me, the phrasing "I'm getting totally blacked out" suggests that the narrator is getting blackout drunk. Does anyone else get this impression, or am I crazy? [[Special:Contributions/108.162.241.123|108.162.241.123]] 16:58, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Anyone try the brightness-contrast with the XKCD 2008 x-mas Special? 66.19.70.101 02:20, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Negative. 108.233.253.211 02:53, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Yes. There is NO color information in those black panels, all pixels read 0x000000. 108.162.216.53 20:52, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
I tried it in Microsoft Office 2010 and got a faint, but very readable image just like the one above.141.101.99.42 18:35, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

What do they mean "typical XKCD fashion"? What other comics have hidden messages in them? 173.245.48.91 22:11, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

The "typical xkcd fashion" line wasn't referring to the exact scenario of a hidden message in the comic. It was referring to the tendency of xkcd comics to have deeper messages (besides the explicit point being made) that may not be immediately visible. NealCruco (talk) 19:13, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

To me, the phrasing "I'm getting totally blacked out" suggests that the narrator is getting blackout drunk. Does anyone else get this impression, or am I crazy? 108.162.241.123 16:58, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Ah yes, I totally get that impression too. 103.22.201.115 14:45, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
