I hesitate

To spam the readership, because if you're already an xkcd fan, you know about the new Tuesday "What if...?" feature and if you're not an xkcd fan, I hope it's because you're one of today's 10,000 and not because you tried it and thought it too weird to exist (which it kind of is, but that's the point) and the "What if...?" feature is a weird up on the comic most of the time. Anyway, as of this post, there have been a grand total of 10 What If...? columns, and I felt the need to share my faves:

Robot Apocalypse
Maybe it's the recent-ness of Dragon*con and its annual robo-battles or maybe it's the deadly cell phone reference, but this one is far and away my favorite, and with the direct Terminator and oblique Time Cop references (no links because I couldn't find appropriate video clips in a reasonable amount of time, edited to add links OMG give me brain bleach for all the wrong clips of 80's hair and fashion choices I had to look at to find them.) I don't see it getting dethroned anytime soon. (*bonk*bonk* GUFFAW)

A Mole of Moles
"Things get a bit gruesome."
SNERK
'Nuff sed

Relativistic Baseball (also, the inaugural What If column and your shortcut to how it all began)
All the diagrams with the circles and the arrows lack is a back for there to be a paragraph expaining what each one is.

Everybody Jump
Well, of course Randall got the cell phone science right; he's the Compleat Geek (or would that be Geke in this case?) Realistic portrayal of consequences to the cellular network give me little shivers and tingles every time I see it, though.

edited to add: am still searching for appropriate Terminator and Time Cop clips. I thought the amount of time I'm spending was unreasonable, until I realized how much  80's hair I would be looking at OMG SAVE ME.
