--- Quote from: zadojla on 19 Oct 2010, 06:19 ---It doesn't even have to be jokes. QC is populated by 20-something characters, written by a 20-something author (where "something" = "10"), and I've learned alot many things about 20-something culture, enabling me to surprise my 22-year-old daughter more than once since I started reading QC. (And, incidentally, leaving my wife dumbfounded.) And, yes, I've had to resort to Google.

It's been like a fountain of youth for me, too. OK, well, at least it's kept me more in touch than my kids and their friends ever would. Or my students.
I've also gained a great deal of respect for Wikipedia!
Oh yeah, and I knew both singularity and Elohim. I think they both show up in the Illuminatus! trilogy, along with a lot of intellectual puns, John Dillinger, and the Leviathan. I think it's pretty dated now, but could be a good read still - I haven't seen it since I read it as a teenager in the 70's.

Between QC, xkcd, LICD, iTunes' free offerings each Tuesday, and a BingMusic app for my iPhone, I am able to surprise my music appreciation students by being somewhat up to date on styles and trends.
That said, my favorite internet radio station is still www.rootsofrock.us
I'd heard of the singularity, but was unaware that yesterday was supposed to be *the* day it happened.
ColonyShipForSale_Cheap:
I desperately want a Happy Singularity! e-cake t-shirt. I'm broke as hell, but I'll figure out a way to buy 2! :-)
laizeohbeets:
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Sexy Robot Elohim has to be Six. It just makes sense.
Carl-E:
Wait, what was that conference Jeph spoke at? Maybe that's what triggered the singularity.
Or at least the comic.
