  • demonbaby, on 07/07/2008, -0/+19Since it's a depiction of Wikipedia, the inclusion of a factual error actually makes the strip more accurate.
  • CrazyEddie041, on 07/07/2008, -4/+21*anticipates endless whining*

    Honestly, if people didn't like xkcd, they wouldn't digg it. It's not going to stop getting to the front page if you complain about it, so just ignore it and move on if it honestly bothers you that much.
  • Neelix, on 07/07/2008, -4/+17Err, there's a factual error in this strip.

    Jayne receives the wooden rain stick in the Firefly episode "Our Mrs Reynolds," not "Jaynestown."
  • Computer_Kid, on 07/07/2008, -3/+15How can you say it's not xkcd, WHEN IT IS XKCD!!!!
  • bassman12593, on 07/07/2008, -2/+13No, we don't need to stop digging xkcd.

    You are wrong.

    (Didn't know you study the wikipedia page for wood to know when it's been modified. I guess everyone has their fetishes.)

  • phr0stbyte, on 07/07/2008, -2/+11i'm digging this just to give all you internet-whiners something to be pissed off about tomorrow.
  • phr0stbyte, on 07/07/2008, -1/+9i was going to write something about how you're life must really suck since your spending precious moments of your life to point out a factual error in a comic about a canceled sci-fi show.

    then i realized i'm doing the exact same thing by replying to your comment.

    i'm going to go cry myself to sleep now.
  • inactive, on 07/07/2008, -0/+6People might as well complain about the sun rising everyday. Or about Peanut butter being tasty.
  • adidos, on 07/07/2008, -4/+10It is *NOT* xkcd
    It is xkcdnot
    It is xkcd pause not
    It is xkcd ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... NOT!
  • AsSubtleAsABrik, on 07/07/2008, -2/+7Seriously, complaining about xkcd always hitting the front page is the new method people use to simply increase their e-penis by +1 digg.
  • rompom7, on 07/08/2008, -0/+41 day 4 hours old, 81 diggs.. and it made it to the front page?

    The algorithm is full of surprises.
  • atgmac, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5I actually prefer the hand drawn xkcd wikipedia to the official site. All wikipedia pages should be drawn by hand!
  • cesclaveria, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3the discussion page is also very entertaining now.
  • AdmiralAcbar, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3Holy *****, they changed it because of this. Nicely done, sir!
  • inactive, on 07/07/2008, -1/+4http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wood#In_Popular_ ... Quite an argument.
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -1/+3How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
  • H4n90fThur5D4y5, on 07/08/2008, -2/+4Niiiice!
  • kxhoopshooter, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5found it http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wood&old ...
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2I was going to write something about you using "you're" when you mean "your", then I realized you obviously don't give a damn, otherwise you'd never have used it incorrectly in the first place.
  • merrickx, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2If you type that out three times in a row, you'll crash the internets completely.

    Don't do it.
  • ElbertF, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2I hate that about peanut butter.
  • jdelator, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1And the story got unfrontpaged!
  • TheWebSwinger, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I'm pretty sure people digg it out of habit.
  • eyepatch100, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I... I did it...

    *gigantic silent nuclear explosion*
  • gregnorc, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1It's the fact that I have XKCD's rss feed in my google reader: this is redundant circle jerking, and it gets on my nerves.
  • CarStan, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck Norris? All of it.
  • GumdoMike, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1So does that make all of the people attempting to carry out the title-text instructions e-terrorists?
    The evil doers must be stopped!
  • carterartist, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1buried. Usually i like your humor, and this time i didn't. Plus i didn't like the false advertising aspect. sorry, maybe next time...
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I love the irony of Xkcd, and ***** all of you sheep who say it sucks because its dugg too much. Why is it dugg so much you idiots?!
  • merrickx, on 07/08/2008, -2/+3Austrian Gay Television?
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2Meh.
  • shondell, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1again?
  • CrazyEddie041, on 07/07/2008, -2/+3He probably just checked it to see if it actually had anything that the comic listed-- that's what I did.
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1How long before you judge that something is infinite?
  • TheAbsintheHare, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1If you didn't know it was Xkcd by the fact it says "NOT xkcd" then you deserve to feel stupid.
  • APer3Caper, on 07/07/2008, -3/+3When I saw the comic strip that was the first thing I noticed.
  • Twenty, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1Wow, just wow...
  • merrickx, on 07/08/2008, -2/+2rly now... thx
  • porque, on 07/08/2008, -1/+0http://digg.com/comics_animation/In_Popular_Cultur ...

    still great
  • CrazyEddie041, on 07/07/2008, -2/+1It's a clever touch. Besides, it'll get deleted if people don't like it there.
  • jdelator, on 07/08/2008, -3/+2Did this hit the front page this morning?
  • LordSkywalker, on 07/07/2008, -4/+3"Someday the 'in popular culture' section will have its own article with an 'in popular culture' section. It will reference this title-text referencing it, and the blogosphere will implode."
  • 0Xonox0, on 07/08/2008, -2/+1Buried for not being xkcd. Oh wait...
  • onux16, on 07/08/2008, -1/+0I could have sworn this was front page yesterday... perhaps this is also the fastest dupe ever?
  • inactive, on 07/08/2008, -2/+1Hmm Reminds me of the people who bitch about digging new releases... At least they're new, unlike some ***** on digg.
  • thetacticus, on 07/07/2008, -3/+2not as funny as i thought it would be...true...but not very funny...

    and i do believe the title is inaccurate...
  • mickstephenson, on 07/07/2008, -3/+2After many months of fail, xkcd results in something comedic. Wikipedia vandalism!
  • allout360, on 07/07/2008, -3/+2My XKCD was late today. What happened? I actually had to go to xkcd.com directly.
