Things to read on the net while you're waiting for MotK to crawl along!

Gunnerkrigg Court - the art and story starts out kinda whimpy, but it vastly improves.
Questionable Content - Indie music and coffee shops. Way more interesting than that sounds.
Looking For Group - Takes a lot from WoW, but isn't actually based in the world of Azeroth. Everyone loves Richard.
XKCD - If I have to explain this to anyone on MotK, seppekku.
Awkward Zombie - Nerdiness and geekiness all wrapped up in silliness.

That's it! Just five! I've run out. SHARE MORE SO I HAVE STUFF TO READ Check them out, and if you frequent any on your lonesome, feel free to drop the links anywhere in here so the rest of us can partake.

I've been following LFG and Awkward Zombie myself. Both always do a good job in keeping myself entertained.

It's been a while since I've read it, but I used to be fond of Married to the Sea for some reason.

Dinosaur Comics is my absolute, absolute favourite. Today's one is a good example of why. :D This one, in particular, really cracked me up the first time I read it.

Oh man, a thread that I am totally qualified to post in~

Pictures for Sad Children is delightfully silly.

So is Surviving the World. And it updates daily!

Penny Arcade is a must-have.

Hang in there, Kogasa-san! on Pixiv/Danbooru is always nice, so is Rappatu's Four Seasons House.

More to come when I get around to it. Hope y'enjoy the ones posted!

Adventurers! finished about... Four years ago?  Maybe more, I might be remembering wrong... But it is still easily my favourite webcomic ever.  The art is kind of crude (especially at the beginning), but that's only a minor problem when the comic was that damn good.

http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ is not a webcomic, per se... but it's worth a read nonetheless.

On top of Awkward Zombie, I keep up with Nerf Now! and Dumbing of Age.  And the Book of Biff.

Oh right, and before I forget... Darths & Droids, a retelling of the entire Star Wars saga as if it were a tabletop RPG campaign.  MUCH better than it sounds.  Actually makes Jar-Jar into a likeable character, which is reason enough to at least give it a try!

Also, I read Something Positive.  Occasionally I forget to do so and my life feels no less enriched, so I imagine there's no real purpose in me doing so anymore... but it's sort of habitual, having more or less kept up with a thing on the internet for ten years or so.

There's Explosm (NSFW). It's kind of hit-and-miss, but some of it is really hilarious.
Also Jack (way more NSFW). Well, if you like preachy, trashy stuff to laugh at, at least. :V
Jack gets rather boring after a while.

Books of Adam is another good one in a similar vein to that.

Also I really adore Johnny Wander (I am frettingcat.) and Hijinks Ensue, and I like Blank It.

Homestuck has its own thread, so I don't need to mention or link that here, so I'll reccoment one of my other favorites - The Adventures of Dr. McNinja. Silly, clever, audacious and just plain freaking entertaining.

For a long time I have been a fan of Concession but I'm not sure it would be likable by anybody.

In another style (teen romance) I really like Bittersweet Candy Bowl.

All of this was discovered when I was a furry xP
