XKCD is like...what you'd get if you took the cleverness of a dolphin, the funniness of a monkey, and the stick-man-likeness of a flamingo, mixed them together then filtered it until you only had the awesome parts left, then posted that on the internet*.
Well, maybe just a bit of hyperbole there***, but it's still pretty gosh darn good. At least it's not trying to pretend that miscarriages are funny, like some web comics I could mention *cough* *control alt delete* *cough*.
All this being said I do occasionally have to look up stuff from XKCD on Wikipedia, so maybe you have a point...
* For this to work you need to know that dolphins are the cleverest animals and monkeys the funniest, this isn't an opinion, there was an article in Nature**.
** May contain traces of lies
*** May be a huge amount of hyperbole, but my point remains valid, maybe
