Cryptaxkcdization

The ability to fit an XKCD to every situation, and Google out the link to it in a few seconds.

"So Alice encrypts her message and sends it to Bob..."
"You mean like xkcd.com/177/ ?"
"Ha, Cryptaxkcdization!"

***

Her status message was

"I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems"

and I immediately thought of xkcd.com/162/

Cryptic metaphor

A line made famous by flash animation veteran, Egoraptor, in his spoof of the game Metal Gear Solid, "Metal Gear Awesome". This is uttered aloud, by Vulcan Raven, referring to the fact that Snakes have no arms, and since Revolver Ocelot gets his arm cut off, it symbolses that he is going to be the next snake, making a cryptic metaphor. This exclamation can also be used by standing silently behind a complete stranger and pointing at them, and waiting for them to turn around, and when they do, shouting "CRYPTIC METAPHOR." And walking away without further comment.

1. Snake: Oh, gee whiz, I hope a tank isn't gonna totally come outta nowhere and OWN me.

*tank shoots snake*

Snake: YOU KNOW... SERIOUSLY... I'M GETTING A LITTLE FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!

Meryl: Hey, Snake, a tank is gonna totally...

Snake: SHUT UP!!

Raven: CRYPTIC METAPHOR.

Snake: Do you seriously think this is fucking fair?

Raven: ...Just throw grenades at me.

Snake: Oh.

*explosion*

Snake: Awsum!

Raven *laughs* I gave him more than a raven could hunt for in the night.

Ocelot: What?!

Raven: The snake prowls feircely, but cannot scratch his back, for as the sioux people are aware of, snakes have no arms with which to scratch their back.

Ocelot: ...Shut up.

Raven: The Raven on my head thirsts for his blood!

Raven's tattoo: DAMN RIGHT, NIGGA, mm-MM!!

2. Mungo: So what are you doing this weekend?

Zodiac: CRYPTIC METAPHOR!!!

Mungo: Cheapass! You did that last week!
