AKICOLJ: xkcd

[wellinghall]

I'm trying to find an xkcd cartoon. Someone is locked out, and is trying a number of technologically-advanced and esoteric ways of getting in touch with their flatmate; but hasn't thought to ring the doorbell. Any ideas?

ETA: Now solved, by the estimable ladyofastolat.

Google "XKCD locked out," and this comes up as the first result: http://xkcd.com/530/

Thanks!

It's also the top hit for googling 'XKCD doorbell'

Okay, my search skills are obviously even worse than I thought they were!

You can't have locked yourself out again. I know you had your keys yesterday morning.

We were talking about it on Wednesday, and I wanted to send the link to Steph.

We're going out to the inn up on the downs for an early lunch, then L will take me into Brighton. See you later.

My son not only remembered the cartoon but without prompting remembered the Title "I'm an Idiot". The kid has good taste. ;)

Indeed! :-)

So, you thought of technologically-advanced and esoteric ways of finding the cartoon such as posting on lj, but hadn't thought of just googling?

[wellinghall.livejournal.com]

Yes, something like that :-)
