What is 0x2121.com?
I've always wanted to do a comic strip, but have lacked the artistic
talent and general ability to make humorous remarks that the average
non-me would get ior* appreciate.
And then... As fate would have it, a friend introduced me to
a wonderful comic,
xkcd, which proved neither of those
things were sigificant limiting factors. I could write a comic
for the sake of "why not". As such this comic is heavily inspired by
xkcd as well as some of my childhood comics (including
The Farside, FoxTrot and Calvin & Hobbes) which I'm sure are
also partially to blame for my current state.
* think of an ior as a more concise and less confuzzing way to say "and/or".
Who is this RicMoo guy, and what's wrong with him??
He tends to procrastinate and put things off a lot. This will
be corrected in future releases. Any new bug opened against this
request will be auto-resolved as a dup.

What does 0x2121.com mean?
With the ever depleeting supply of reasonable domain names,
one must be clever to get a decent one these days. Giving
up after a few hours of trying to be clever, I settled on being
nerdy and random. Everyone loves a good hexidecimal number, and
any bash user will testify to the almighty power of
"!!". Also, it's repeated, making it 2 less bytes you have to
place into the persistent storage of your brain. And if you ever forget
the domain (unintentionally), just remember a few simple keystrokes:
$ echo -n '!!' | xxd
0000000: 2121
What's next?
I'll fill more in this FAQ section as time permits and specific
questions' frequencies approached the rate of "frequently asked"
(by distinct persons).
