Webcomics With Puzzles
Dan shares two webcomics that you might like to see, if you enjoy a good puzzle from time to time.
-
Fetch Quest
Dan muses on the nature of the "fetch quest" in video game RPGs, and how we as a culture may be shaped by them to such a point that they will one day become acceptable in the real world, not just on computer screens. And he plans to take advantage of that fact, when the day comes.

A Punting Story
Dan, Ruth and JTA borrow a punt and go for a picnic. It turns out that driving a punt is a lot harder than it looks. Especially when you're drunk.

Satisfied

Garfield Minus Garfield
This is fabulous: Garfield Minus Garfield. It's what you get if you digitally remove Garfield from Garfield comic strips - a better comic, touching on themes of loneliness and schizophrenia. Genius.

Dan & Alex 72
AltDan & Alex 72: Alex installs antivirus software. Dan warns him that it won't protect him from idiocy. As soon as Dan's out of sight, Alex starts downloading free screensavers.

Dan & Alex 71
AltDan & Alex 71: Simon demands to know how a virus got on his computer. Alex claims not to even know what a virus is. Dan says that's a great defence, but Alex plays coy: perhaps he genuinely doesn't know?
