I still don't understand lol
If you need a wikipedia page to explain a joke, then maybe it's not a very good joke
Well it's not a Wikipedia page, but good try. Further, Xkcd is fantastic in general but we cannot expect every single one of them to appeal to everyone, even angry commenters on Lemmy
You just missed the joke
I don't think anyone's necessarily positing that it is a good joke
It's a wikimedia site, so he was close at least lol
I thought this was going to be some math thing, turned out to be so much more straightforward.
it does involve some familiarity with song names, and some basic addition skills, right?
