Wow. That's a lot of effort to explain a joke.

Though several of those seem to be missing the full joke explanation.
DWI seems like a play on BWI. YYZ sounds like it should be fake yet it's real, ORD because those letters are actually in Orlando, etc.
And I'm still trying to figure out how MSY refers to the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport.

The international airport of New Orleans was originally named Moisant Field and the MSY identification comes from the airport’s origins as Moisant Stock Yards, the name given to the land where the U. S. aviator John Bevins Moisant (Illinois 1868 – New Orleans 1910) crashed where the airport was later built.

XKCD is the internet version of New Yorker cartoons - you pretend to get them to appear all intellectual.

On that note, here is a New Yorker Cartoon from 1993, that seems to have aged well:

Fantastic stuff. There's another contest that displays the winners in the Smithsonian (I think Natural History).

Looks fake

Would be quite a conspiracy.  Major news outlets reporting, quotes from people on board.
