Check out xkcd's (April Fools?) front end. Command line + text adventure all in one. Best geek AF thingy ever.

So far, have figured out a couple things, trying to avoid the cheatsheet.
 
Oh that is fantastic! If you write "cheat" it says "free shipping enabled" and when I typed xkcd it replied "Yes?" And it said hi back to me. How friendly!

edit: and if you type in the f word, it says "I have a headache" 😀 Brilliant!

Oh the simple things!
 
🙂
Code: 
guest@xkdc:/$ man xkcd
Oh, I'm sure you can figure it out.

guest@xkdc:/$ reboot
Must be root.

guest@xkdc:/$ xyzzy
Nothing happens.
 
I went wandering but now I'm dead! 🙁

There wasn't much scenery.

Can someone explain this particular emoticon to me?

I don'r really know, I thought it was part of the April fool's MR joke yesterday. I tried to put a "😀" there but when it posted it came out as ":d". I even edited my post and the same thing happened again?

But I see the "😀" worked fine for Blue above, so I'm stumped? 😕
 
"colon lowercase d" should stay as you typed it.

"colon uppercase D" is the text representation of the Big Grin smilie 🙂D).

This isn't the first time that I've seen :d It looks like someone licking their lips, if you ask me.
