ALEX: All of our products are web-enabled, and default to producing content suitable for viewing on the World Wide Web.

CUSTOMER: Oh, that's funny. Everyone knows you guys put stuff in your software making it next to impossible to view your "web enabled" content in anything but an Ubersoft web browser.

ALEX: On the contrary, all our products are rigorously tested to ensure that they are fully compliant with any and all Ubersoft-authorized open standards.

CUSTOMER: What standards are those?

ALEX: Those are the ones we wrote and didn't tell anyone about.

"Desperately Unfunny."

"The artwork is lame and repetitive, the 'jokes' are either inside software industry jokes or thinly disguised anti-capitalist rantings."

"Are there really 80 people who find any reference to Microsoft in a web comic funny?"

"Why has this been running since 1996? Who actually reads it? Who is the idiot who reads it every day and posts the 'good' ones up on reddit? Doesn't he realize he is wasting his time?"
