The xkcd link format is really easy - http://xkcd.com/606/ isn't too hard to type.

Ok, lesson learned - don't post a comment that requires a link if I'm not able to make the hyperlink because I can't copy and paste.

That's a silly rule, but at least it is easy to follow.

A less silly rule is to read the parent of the comment you're replying to so that the comment thread does not turn into a Markov chain of order 1.

(That is, I don't believe that the hyperlink thing is the reason you were downvoted; most likely it is that CronoDAS had already linked to the same comic.)
