Great webcomics
There are lots of creative minds around the world. Some of them invest their time in hilarious comics. I will list a few of them here.
xkcd is probably one of the best known comics. They vary some in quality but they all have that difficult-to-explain greatness about them. Please check out the above comic in full here.
Explosm.net is actually very new to me but quickly made it to one of my favourites (ahh, rss-feeds!).
For those of you who've played WoW at some point in your PC career, I can heartily recommend Dark Legacy Comics. Just pick a random comic and have a laugh!

"Forget All Our Earlier Commercials"
"I Wouldn't Watch This Commercial"

As you can see the commercial has changed quite as much as the OS!
Nevertheless, being at a conference with this guy has got to be fun. This is how he introduces himself.
And he were definitely listening in class when they talked about how to make your point clear in a speech:
So, fellow Windows users, we're in good hands.
While we're at it, I should include this spoof.
