Obscure Geek Humour

xkcd delivers every time - obscure geek humour. not the usual old standby of either LoTR or star wars references. For example, for the one linked you need to know a bit about Nash/game theory (or at the very least have seen Beautiful Mind) and know a bit about Feynman (such as by reading Surely you’re joking, Mr. Feynman!, a book I recommend, by the way).

If you so happen to know who both of these characters are, this strip has you rolling on the floor.

Some other highlights:

It’s really true, String theory, redux, Can’t put my finger on why but I laughed at this one the hardest, It’s good to be an atheist, True Romance, Political punchline, Not so much true romance, Whoa, that’s an insult, You have to read this one to get it, cat?, Livin’ the blog, Old meets New gaming. Enjoy.
