xkcd 927 - How Standards Proliferate
(See: A/C chargers, character encodings, instant messaging, etc.)

Situation: There are 14 competing standards.

Cueball and Ponytail stand facing each other:
Cueball: 14?! Ridiculous! We need to develop one universal standard that covers everyone’s use cases.
Ponytail: Yeah!

Soon: Situation: we did it our standard beat all the other ones and is universal yay :D

      ummm… Chloe?.. u… u have - u have a great art style.

      like -… gosh - the combo of the new pfp and the caerit and and – the vibe u give us… its great, i luv in (and am kindsa envious cuz I really like it a lot n i also want an art style)

      like…,… u really have a specific thing about u, like… a real solid character or vibe. a vibe of I woke up 1PM and will now drink tea kinda vibe maybe…

      or a its snowing so of course I will go outside kinda vibe… u managed to make ur profile feel like a real representation… and i admire that… <3

        thank uuu <3

        im sorry to disappoint u but… it’s not my art style, i don’t know how to draw. i made my new pfp (and the old one too) using picrew :3 (if u don’t know, it’s an avatar maker basically, you pick stuff like your hair style, skin color, head accessories…)

        if ur curious, the one i used for this pfp is this one

        but your art style is really cute too, don’t sell yourself short you’re amazing :3
