I was going to exclaim some fact about the HTTP status code 240. Unfortunately, there is no HTTP status code 240, so that plan did not go so well.
Trope-tan: And so commences comic number two hundred and forty!
The first panel opens up with a statement of the comic number, which is closely followed by a description of the first panel's content!
Fred: Visually, the panel features imagery of Trope-tan and Fred Phillips, both appearing as catgirls and in the art style of the Touhou fanwork entitled create.swf.
Also, walls of text.
Bob: This isn't clever meta. This is just stupid meta.
Trope-tan: … said Bob as the second panel started, characteristic of his complete inability to enjoy anything fun.
Bob: This isn't even fun. It's only recursive.
Trope-tan: Bob was subsequently removed from the rest of the comic for not liking recursion!
Because how can anyone not like recursion?
Trope-tan: So, we enter the fourth panel of page two hundred and forty!
Xavius: Why are you so excited about this being page two hundred and forty?
It's not really a milestone or anything.
Trope-tan: Oh, but it is!
Trope-tan: 240 is a highly composite number! Fact!
Jane: That means it has more divisors than any preceding number!
Trope-tan: Indeed it does! It has twenty of them, to be precise!
Trope-tan: That also makes it a refactorable number! Fact!
Fred: That means that its count of divisors, in this case twenty (as previously noted), is itself a divisor!
Trope-tan: Correct!
Trope-tan: 240 is also a pronic number! Fact!
Xavius: That's because it can be expressed as the product of two consecutive integers!
Trope-tan: Precisely! Fifteen and sixteen!
Trope-tan: And it's divisible by the sum of its digits (six!), so-
Jane: - that makes it a Harshad number!
Trope-tan: Indeed!
Wait, how do you guys know all this stuff about 240? You're not omniscient; not at present, anyway.
Fred: Oh, we asked Wikipe-tan.
Trope-tan: Uh… h-hi, Wikipe-tan.
Wikipe-tan: Salutations. A pleasure to meet once more, *Trope-tan*.
Trope-tan: Um.
Wikipe-tan: To address the first *query* you haven't actually made, I'm here because you referenced me[1] in the previous *comic*[2].
Trope-tan: Um, right.
Trope-tan: Tho, um, I'm kinda… omnipotent, now?
Wikipe-tan: My congratulations.
Trope-tan: Yeah.
Wikipe-tan: … line?
Trope-tan: Oh, it'th… um, right. E-ecthcuthe me a moment.
Trope-tan: You are meant to be in this comic too.
Mysteriously Unidentified Character: Yeah, yeah. Just give me another month or so?
It's also quite interesting that the date and time of upload (1/22/2012 12:00 AM) includes no digit greater than 2.
Oh, and hey there's finally an update, Yay!
I've learned to speak British now.
