    Pwnage. I swear it's a V1000 case. This reinforces my belief in both the superiority of Lian-Li cases and xkcd's impeccable taste. (Is it fair for the cause and effect to prove each other? Probably not, but I already like them both, so I really don't care. :D)

    I quoteth for the truth this post portrays!

    The turing test is a test of a computer AI iirc. The thing about that comic is that it says "lol if this happened"... then its just a picture of it happening. Its not even a joke, just a picture of something that would be quite a QUIP if it actually happened.

    Furthermore I see not how this relates to LIAN LI... THUS I MUST CONCLUDE this thread was created by a spammer. There seems to have been a revolution in spamming whereby it doesn't have to advertise or sell anything. Doesn't even have to insult or anything. People keep spamming my society's forum with posts about how great the site is :)

    Yeah, that was the one xkcd comic that really just made me scratch my head and look for a lolcat. You probably have to have an IQ above the room temperature* in order to get it.

    Why, thank you! Ambient here is 20 celsius, putting my IQ somewhere over 293.

    As for the comic itself, I like it. It's not the best he's ever done, but it's certainly not the worst either. (Please note that there probably are better and worse ones than those, they're just the ones I could find on short notice.)

    Not really. I just thought that the cartoon was funny, and found it amusing that the selected 'genius computer' resembles a V1000. Knowing there are a large number of Lian-Li fans on this forum, I thought other people might find it amusing as well. That's all. *shrug*
