Ahhh, undead math. I love it.

Actually, I watched Ghostbusters tonight and in the scene where Gozer asks them to pick their doom, I wondered what would have happened had Ray thought of like... a triangle, or maybe a platonic solid.

Some how I can see the ending working with a giant Triangle of DOOM that attacks and shoots lighting ect.

  "Hmm, don't see that every day."
  "I thought I would pick something safe from my childhood."

For another example (admittedly less spectacular) of xkcd appearing in a real-life context, see Ross Douthat's review of Mark Helprin's screed on copyright: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/21/books/review/Douthat-t.htm...

I think the youtube speaking peoples comments back to them has to be the best xkcd come to life

I'm a bit creeped out by the real-life explanation, if only becasue I JUST finished watching an episode of "House" where the same thing happens. Apparently this is a theme of late.

Nitpick: it's written xkcd or XKCD, not Xkcd. (Source: http://xkcd.com/about)

I believe Hacker News capitalize the first word of the submission title no matter what. Which brings "IPhone" quite often.

It is possible to use a lowercase title: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=669937
