There are lots
of Greasemonkey scripts for that. I use the one at the top.
Why should you do that? The Alt Text is just the name of the comic. The Title however, is funny, and doesn't need a plug-in to be displayed when hovering the picture: FF already does it automatically.
"And as long as a sack of shit is not a good thing to be, chivalry will never die."
Well, for one thing, I got that extension before Firefox 3.0 came out. For another, I do find it marginally more convenient. *shrugs*

the statement above is false
XKCD is the only webcomic I read. It's intelligent, it's got unique humour, unlike all this Two Gamers on a Couch stuff plus it's romantic.
I'm currently doing an Archive Binge, and I just happened on this page.
Unfortunately, I can't find TV Tropes on it.

I guess we'd probably be somewhere off the side of the Wikipedia cluster, if we were on the map.
This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...
Looking at that map again, I notice that they think there are more attractice Myspace pages than users on 4chan. Weird. :/
That one strip where Randall chewed out/mocked arts majors, he was joking, right?
Just want to be sure.
<vaguely paranoid or at the very least braindead/irritable at the moment>
On a lighter note, I loved the strip proposing the idea of funny pictures as currency.

Interestingly, a two-liter bottle contains three liters...

Those are actually a bit handy, because even thoguh I've only ever used metric, I tend to forget very simple stuff, like how long is 10 cm, exactly.
the statement above is false
Gentleman Adventurer!
I like the fourth one under length. You wish!
Your funny quote here! (Maybe)
I find this one handy too, 'cos despite a firm grounding in the sciences I can never seem to remember Summer Glau's volume when I need to.

Not to brag, but that one is the avarage, and bit on the low side for me :3

Cold.
I love xkcd's obsession with raptors.
Sex, Drugs, and Rationality
Not Actually Indie
14 centimeters is actually the median. The mean is slightly skewed right by the Ron Jeremies of the world.
...eventually, we will reach a maximum entropy state where nobody has their own socks or underwear, or knows who to ask to get them back.
About the new one: What a strange haiku.

Is that right?
Looks like it to me.
This one is pretty good. Another addition to Tripod Terror.
I am I, Don Quixote
The Lord of La Mancha,
My Destiny calls and I go
And the wild winds of... oh, um, sorry. Didn't see you there.
Reference to Tripod: bleh.
Reference to Don Quixote: EXTREMELY WIN.
Who the heck is Don Quixote? And no links to elsewhere thanks; I want something I can just read and get it over with.
...if that made any sense. ;/
The first Spanish novel, by Miguel de Cervantes, a contemporary of Shakespeare.
A deconstruction of knight-tales.
A wealthy man reads too many books about knights-errant and goes insane, believing himself to be one.
And... don't we have a page?

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?
There was a Firefox add-on for version 2 that let you see the complete alt-text. Although I did just stumble upon it by accident...
