I find it mildly amusing that just the other day my XKCD-Cautionary edit post was killed off. Perhaps it was too close to home, or in too poor taste.
Nevertheless, Calvin and Jobs, utterly hilarious!
- dandelany 18y agoNah, it just wasn't funny.
- convolver 18y agoOh, I'm glad the master of humor decided to chime in here, thanks for setting everything straight. /me shrugs off bs Your insulting comment doesn't have a thing to do with why it was killed off in the first place. I'm also fairly surprised you aren't railing on about how nickb's post is pulling hackernews down into the terrible dredges of fark! We wouldn't want to minimalize our up mods now would we?

- benjamincanfly 18y agoIt could be because Reddit has a subreddit specifically for XKCD (http://www.reddit.com/r/xkcd http://www.reddit.com/r/xkcd), and many HN readers are already familiar with it.
- convolver 18y agoEhh, you really think so? I mean XKCD stuff lingers up on hackernews all the time. My said post was nixed in ~40 minutes.
