Yeah, yeah, I know, everyone reads XKCD, and it’s so tramline to link to it or repost it and say “OMG XKCD made me do a LOL”. But today’s XKCD really did make me do a LOL, which is hard work for anyone at 7:30am. So I’m linking and reposting it*.

Here’s the opening panel of the latest edition of Diesel Sweeties, a webcomic that all geeks should read – and I work on the assumption that 90% of readers of VCTB are that sort of geek*.

So click through for the punchline (which is even more VCTB appropriate):

An extra ten geek points for recognising the cultural reference in my post title, there. Answers in the comments!
