    I knew a guy like this. Unfortunately, he was one of the three main programmers at our company (I being another). Very nice and smart guy, great sense of humor. But dammit, he could wreck a computer like nobody's business.

    I should have went through that website with him.

    (PS: He is now a priest.)

    My best friend's brother has a similar thing. He always had weird unrepeatable glitches happen in video games. The one that sticks out the most was he was playing one of the early 3D GTAs(maybe Vice City) and he managed to somehow jump a hill and get his car stuck in the air. It seemed to land in side an invisible box floating above the street.

    I might not either?
    I thought the title was “Odd” because 2 times any integer plus one (aka 2b+1) is the definition of an odd number.
    Might be it, might not.

    I love Gabe's look of thought as he tries to remember if he or a member of his family has ever inconvenienced a hedge-witch.

    This is a plot from the early-90s tv series "Friday the 13th", isn't it?

    Alternate text for Gabe in panel 2: "Well, I feel 'inconvenience' may be too strong of a word for it..."

    "It's just as I've always said. We are being digested by an amoral universe."

    A Witch would be someone who went to Hogwarts, or whatever. I.E. they had formal training, a title, education, etc...

    A Hedge-Witch has none of that. Just some random chick who discovered she could cast spells and had a fondness for black cats.

    I've often felt buyers remorse after buying dark relics. I'm a sucker.

    Yeah, I saw that third panel and the song... it's in my head now.

    It's funny that Tycho mentions Minecraft and getting in early, cos it was Penny Arcade (specifically THIS comic) that got me to try Minecraft in the first place.

    @LIONHEARTSSJ I just buy more myself as once you have so many they just cancel eachother out. Sometimes I like to mess around with them like putting a rubix cube inside pandoras box.
