It's no 6 degrees of separation, but the website that automatically finds the smallest number of connections for wiki articles wasn't working for me. - elitistmusician, on 12/31/2007, -3/+69real answer to the title:

- 5xSTUN, on 12/31/2007, -0/+12I don't think that patents themselves need blood, but the people who buy up old ones and sue everyone they can find for "infringing" them sure seem like a lot of bloodthirsty vampires.
- thailand1972, on 12/31/2007, -1/+13Why did the dude look up "Greek chairs" in Wiki?
- Darkhacker, on 12/31/2007, -0/+11As long as it is a link and he didn't manually type in a URL, it's not cheating.
- sleepwalkers, on 12/31/2007, -0/+11"A bench is long enough for several people to sit on."

- TastyLamp, on 12/31/2007, -2/+13Nah people turn off the ads these days.
- Borgcube, on 12/31/2007, -0/+10No, the comic is saying that it is easy to get lost in the sea of information...
- celkin, on 12/31/2007, -1/+11I like how we're getting a lot of comic strips on the front page.
And by a lot I mean two - saifatlast, on 12/31/2007, -0/+10This xkcd comic explains it well: http://xkcd.com/214/ imagine the dude started with an article about stemming blood flow, instead.
- CodyZ, on 12/31/2007, -1/+10No one knows what that means, I think that was part of the joke.
- BlueSkyfish, on 12/31/2007, -0/+8"The human hand has five fingers [citation needed]"
- Maynza, on 12/31/2007, -0/+8I can see this becoming a trend, if you guys enjoy cyanide and happiness, why not link to the page this file is on? That way they can afford to keep up their site. :/
- testcase, on 12/31/2007, -3/+11Wiki is still awesome, in spite of the fact that this cartoon sucked the big one.
- saifatlast, on 12/31/2007, -1/+8THe penis is a reproductive and excretory organ, not an artery. You should probably spend some time learning about basic anatomy.
- chrisinsocalif, on 12/31/2007, -0/+7Aww man i got rickrolled again!
- munkyxtc, on 12/31/2007, -0/+7C'mon, the guy has obviously been waiting weeks, possibly even months to find the perfect context in which he can use the term dick in a sentence. Let him bask in his glory.
- ryanonfire, on 12/31/2007, -0/+7what website is that?
- whistlerpro, on 12/31/2007, -1/+7Hot linking is evil.
- DeviantDragon, on 12/31/2007, -3/+9Well I think the point of the comic is that there's so much complicated detail in wikipedia entries that can suck you in.
- slvrbullet87, on 12/31/2007, -0/+61. Scapel

- oneoverzero, on 12/31/2007, -2/+8I disagree.
- Crasoum, on 12/31/2007, -1/+6Well it does have 5 fingers, if they have polydactly ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polydactyly ), otherwise most people have 4 fingers and a thumb.
- Syvl, on 12/31/2007, -0/+5Yeah, he just made that up. Here's the wiki on Greek chairs:
Greek and Roman chairs
The earliest known form of Greek chair dates back to six or seven centuries before Christ. On the frieze of the Parthenon Zeus occupies a square seat with a bar-back and thick turned legs; it is ornamented with winged sphinxes and the feet of beasts. The characteristic Roman chairs were of marble, also adorned with sphinxes. The curule chair was originally very similar in form to the modern folding chair, but eventually received a good deal of ornament. The most famous of the very few chairs which have come down from a remote antiquity is the reputed chair of St. Peter in St Peter's Basilica at Rome. The wooden portions are much decayed, but it would appear to be Byzantine work of the 6th century, and to be really an ancient sedia gestatoria. It has ivory carvings representing the labours of Hercules. A few pieces of an earlier oaken chair have been let in; the existing one, Gregorovius says, is of acacia wood. The legend that this was the curile chair of the senator Pudens is necessarily apocryphal. It is not, as is popularly supposed, enclosed in Gian Lorenzo Bernini's bronze chair, but is kept under triple lock and exhibited only once in a century. Byzantium, like Greece and Rome, affected the curule form of chair, and in addition to lions’ heads and winged figures of Victory (or Nike) and dolphin-shaped arms used also the lyre-back which has been made familiar by the pseudo-classical revival of the end of the 18th century.

- thedog300, on 12/31/2007, -0/+5Here's a link to where the chair quote was pulled from.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chair - smookyfufu, on 12/31/2007, -3/+8Hey lets overanalyze an internet comic.
- sleepwalkers, on 12/31/2007, -0/+5I wonder how many people thought of that once they read the parent comment and then scrolled down only to curse you for beating them to the punch.
