Meta: I can't believe how often xkcd nails it.
3 comments

You too could nail it. Just give up your job and draw stickman comics 3 times a week.
I suspect that others could nail it just as often but lack the ability to present the conclusion in a way that's both succinct and palatable. Holding the mirror up to people and surviving the act is a delicate art.
Also, that niche appears to be taken.
The irony here is that for those who are reading too much into the comic, logically they must believe that xkcd's success is just luck.
