'what did you do'...i think i pooed a little

I remember back in 2004, netsending other people in my college classes "ENTERING DEATH MODE - WHAT DID YOU DO?" and watching them freak out from the back of the classroom.

that. is. rad!

I once netsent "hi" to * and got in a good deal of trouble in high school.

Net send was fun until people realised that it was me.

can someone explain netsend? I am intrigued by this...

It's a command that sends text to people on your network. If you're in a room of people on the same LAN you could theoretically send a message to anyone which would be displayed as a pop up dialog which could appear to be an error or such as an important system message.

Awww, the question mark, you have to leave out the question mark!

You're still awesome though.

I really want a click robot.

Dawg she's Chinese.

It's probably made in china but designed by the japanese. The robot, I mean. Not Ultra Peanut.

totally my bad.

In your defense, her accent sounds more Japanese than Chinese.

ONSTAD'S WIFE IS CHINESE. SHE WROTE THIS STRIP.

CAPS LOCK MAKES YOUR POINT MORE VALID

IT IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR CREDIBILITY

Chubby to you, finely worded, my good sir.

the alt text he was referencing was written in all caps

This comment sounds like something Ray would say.

This little sequence is one of my favorites. I can't think of Ultra Peanut without saying "super-size homo jackass!"

ALT TEXT: klik

If I recall correctly, circa 7 months ago the alt text did not show up in the assetbar version, just the main site.

For years I've been right-click-Properties to see alt-text. If you can't find that then you don't deserve alt-text.

As I said, unless my memory is failing me (entirely possible), Assetbar strips did not have alt text attached to them at all . Thus: people who took the time to go to the main site, find the alt text on the proper strip, and transcribe it over here were performing a service for their fellow fans equivalent to that of Ms. Xiaomimi, who posts links to blog posts at the appropriate dates.

I've since realised this, and have gained eight kilos due to my all-crow diet.

That explanation makes it much less annoying! I assumed there WAS a reason, just had no idea what it was.

what did you do

I can not get my mother to use any sort of electronic device because this is always what she thinks will happen

Many times when my father uses electronic devices, some variant of this happens.

I did this to my Tamagochi when I was a kid; I came back and it had a litttle space ship on the screen and i was all like, "dang."

I want to know what would happen if Ultra Peanut denied Click Robot his bathroom time in panel 3? Clickle trickle perhaps?

This reminds me of this one time, ages ago, when I got one of the first Pokemon Pikachu hip odometer things.

I could have sworn I remembered hearing that they were waterproof.
