author's comments: Or love in general, for that matter.
It just leads to the idea that either your love is pure,
perfect, and eternal, and you are storybook-compatible
in every way with no problems, or you're LYING when you say 'I love you'.

What does XKCD stand for?
It's not actually an acronym. It's just a word with no phonetic pronunciation -- a treasured and carefully-guarded point in the space of four-character strings.
For those of us pedantic enough to want a rule, here it is: The preferred form is "xkcd", all lower-case. In formal contexts where a lowercase word shouldn't start a sentence, "XKCD" is an okay alternative. "Xkcd" is frowned upon.
