I almost constantly feel like a fish out of water, so not only do I find them not funny, but they actually turn my mood a little sour. (fortunately the effect is becoming less pronounced with age)
Almost a year ago, I used to use one of Google's many services called Google Reader, you give it a list of RSS feeds and it assembled their updates into a date-sorted list. Every day I would visit Google Reader to see what websites and webcomics had updated.
Unfortunately, some twit with power at Google decided it wasn't doing them any good and shut it down (fortunately with warning). This sparked a bunch of other web services to either start up or branch into RSS feed reading, including Feedly, which is the service I use myself.
