Physics with a twist

Cocktail Party Physics-- Serving up science and culture with a splash of wit. "Cocktail Party Physics is a group science blog that aims to create a salon-like virtual space where contributors and readers alike can chat about the latest news and ideas in science -- with a twist. If we can make it fun, funky, unconventional, and blur the lines between traditional disciplines -- both within the sciences themselves, and science and the arts, literature, pop culture, history, and every other aspect of our culture -- so much the better."

How long until there is an xkcd comic about this?

This is the kind of cocktail party where I'd be happy to stand around awkwardly and out of place, with nothing to say, just listening in on other people's conversations.

Great blog, but she posts a lot of broken links for some reason.

The second link in what's currently the top post ("boyz will be boyz") should be this. The author of that post got the link right in the third paragraph but somehow transposed two letters in the domain name the first time.

How long until someone figures out this IS just a remix of xkcd comic?
