xkcd, a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language by Randall Munroe … oh, but it is so very much more. It is a spiky delight: gloriously hilarious and incredibly painful.

Visit, read, laugh and hurt.

Man I love concept art (if you haven’t already guessed from the multiple posts on here). More beautiful stuff from Russian illustrator Cornacchia.

The Monkey Island series of games is tres amazing and brilliant … which meant they kept making them over a long period of time as audio technology developed AND they kept recording new versions of the theme song. Play to hear the theme songs created over two decades.

Love you Guybrush Threepwood!
