To best understand the story lines to the fullest I recommend that you resad KXCD.COM from the begining forward. http://xkcd.com/archiv
FIRST READ this in it complete form at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xkcd.co
xkcd is a webcomic created by Randall Munroe, a former contractor for NASA It calls itself "a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language." The site states there is no particular meaning to the name that it is simply a "treasured and carefully-guarded point in the space of four-character strings."
The subjects of the comics themselves vary. Some are statements on life and love (some love strips are simply art with poetry), and some are mathematical or scientific in-jokes. Some strips feature simple humor or pop-culture references. Although known for its crudely drawn cast of oddball stick figures,[7][2] the comic occasionally features landscapes, intricate mathematical patterns such as fractals (for example, strip #17 "What If" shows an Apollonian gasket), or imitations of the style of other cartoonists (as during "parody week"). Occasionally, realism is featured.
