Hi, author here. I didn't see the comment that was deleted that you responded to (it wasn't me). I guess I just slapped it up there because it captured the moment of how I felt when I read the post I was responding to. Did not mean to come off as smug, I just thought that it was funny that reading something on the internets got me feeling so strongly that I wanted to respond to it.

Update: decided to just remove the XKCD comic
