Comic #226

1 Me: [thinking] {reading a webcomic} "This comic is self-referential."
2 Me: [thinking] "Panel 1 tells you it's self-referential, and panel 2 tells you that panel 2 tells you about panels 1 and 2."
3 Me: [thinking] "Panel 3 tells you about panel 3. It also tells you about panel 4, in which the reader doesn't get the joke."
4 Me: {pointing at the screen, confused} Huh? I don't get it.

2012-07-19 Rerun commentary: This annotation is self-referential. In it, I tell you that if I'd really done this comic properly, I'd have this actual comic on the computer screen, rather than what is obviously some other comic.

Here is where I lament on opportunities squandered.

In the next sentence I tell you that this comic was inspired by reading Douglas Hofstadter. Actually, this sentence is entirely redundant now.
