Default proving love thread?

I saw it the other day but cannot find it now. Anyway I just wanted to share this on that thread.



not sure if it's legal to post a direct photo, someone please delete the image tags if there is a problem.

In place of the copyrighted artwork, I suggest a link to the source:

Edit: Oh, XKCD is creative commons, so it's probably OK to hotlink it but an attribution would be nice.

Hi Yo!

Meanwhile the best proof of love is how long so many pledges of "forever" last. It's amazing the insurance industry hasn't got into it, since the actuarial tables are pretty solid. "Love" insurance: sort of the same idea as "life" insurance. Euphemism city, baby.

The license explicitly allows hotlinking, if you include a link to the site, which Jim did, so now he's clear both with them and with the rules here.
