>xkcd has been hitting it out of the park consistently of late

I haven't checked it in a few years since it was getting so bad, so based on this I went and looked through the most recent dozen or so comics. Can you point to some of these home runs? Because all I saw was the same inane observations without adding any insight or thought or a joke or anything. I'm honestly not just trying to be contrarian, I just can't see how his recent work is in any way different from the last 3 years.

He's talking about Externalities and Time here. Not sure if these are the same ones he calls home runs.
