But the most relevant prediction is that of the ‘Mechanical Maid,’ an amazing little device that’s capable of cleaning the floor with the push of a button. Roomba, anyone?

Not only that, but they contain some of the funniest, punniest, and cheesiest LOL-worthy jokes on the web. Kim’s comics have been published in calenders and publications, including The Annals of Improbable Research, Physics Today, Chemical Innovation, New Scientist, Skeptic, Chemistry in Australia, New Zealand Science Monthly, and many, many more that you’ve never heard of in your life.

They’ve been on the web since 1994, and are aging well. Today, Kim’s works are still some of the funniest geek cartoons on the web.

Over a hundred of Kim’s best works have been put on one page at the Nearing Zero website.
