This page seems to be devoted to using web comics as examples of colloquial English usage:

(I had to run it through Google to figure that out, though.)

edit: Had to fix URL!

Always good to see someone recognize the value of an underappreciated-but-primal medium such as comics.

Also, I love Google's automatic translations. Phrase like, "Usually they are in webs quite stable, since they are destined to catch hits," never fail to entertain.
