If XKCD would not be able to have a feature which is technically but not socially correct, then what webcomic may?

The people who learn that random(uncorrelated) is what it is and not what they want are part of today's lucky 10'000

Indeed, if I were running that site, I would now implement the ability to turn on intentional non-randomness for _specific people_, and begin embedding messages in the sequences of comics, or selecting the same two comics 28 times in a row on occasion. Heck, stick the referrer in the session and give everyone coming in from _that blog post_ wildly divergent randomness characteristics :-)
