"I'm gonna use a word I really shouldn't use. But people might get mad at me for doing so. But on the other hand, the word is really edgy and cool... That's it! I'll just cover up part of the word so people don't notice I'm using it! I'm so smart!"

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 115 points 8 months ago

Originally in the book it seems to have been "dude", then someone made a post where they changed it to "nigga", but it wasn't censored. Later on someone decided to censor the word. So not the same people at work there (I mean, I think not lol)

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

It's still dumb as hell tho.

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 61 points 8 months ago

Over a popular webcomic’s art so that uninformed backlash may be directed towards the artist they freebooted from

[-] accideath@lemmy.world 40 points 8 months ago

When searching for the first half of the quote I quickly found the uncensored version on ifunny… (like the 4th result on DuckDuckGo images)

Took a little longer to find the original comic, where the wolf just says "dude"

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 8 points 8 months ago

I swear, I was just trying to write the name of the country! I didn't know it only had one G!

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 8 months ago

How do you know this wasn't made by a black person?

[-] hdnsmbt@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

I don't and it's irrelevant because the stupid attempt of hiding the word does not change with the skin colour of the person who made it.

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 8 months ago

I'm gonna use a word I really shouldn't use

Some people can in fact use this word. This sentence reads as if you know the person really shouldn't be using it because you know their race isn't allowed to, however, there is indeed a race that is allowed to and the original poster could very well belong to that.

The fact that you can't understand how this could have been posted by one person uncensored, then screencapped by a second, then censored by a third, or even fourth person, fifth person, etc, is frankly just icing on the cake.

I really appreciate your analysis of what I can and can't understand along with your obnoxious pendatry. Very valuable information, thank you. Now kindly fuck off.

[-] PastaCeci@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

lemmy.world is removed

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 8 months ago

Glad I could help, you smug little bastard!

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 55 points 8 months ago

Hmm, this implies that pig #1 built his house out of hydrogen...

[-] lowleveldata@programming.dev 40 points 8 months ago

We refer to him as the sun god now

[-] Sphks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago

What a foul

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 38 points 8 months ago

I think this should be changed to "really dogg" because wolves might call each other dogg but could get offended if a pig said it.

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 14 points 8 months ago

The wolf is the one saying it, gotta think of something pigs would find offensive

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 20 points 8 months ago
[-] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 2 points 8 months ago

I love that based ACAB shit, and this is funny as fuck.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 months ago

I hate the acab nonsense, but this made me laugh out loud

[-] minstrel@lemmy.eco.br 5 points 8 months ago
[-] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

Doggo is our word

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 30 points 8 months ago

Did the first pig build their house out of hydrogen?

[-] Neon@lemmy.world 20 points 8 months ago

it was veery easy to burn down

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 5 points 8 months ago

Well, burn up

[-] bfg9k@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

The Cadmium and Astatine houses would be rather explodey as well

[-] tweeks@feddit.nl 3 points 8 months ago

Helium would definitely be an easy win for the wolf.

[-] frunch@lemmy.world 21 points 8 months ago

Damn, never seen an xkcd where they used that kind of language! 😳

[-] accideath@lemmy.world 94 points 8 months ago

It‘s not original. The joke originated in xkcd 821 (Five Minute Comics Pt. 3), however it was a little different still. The wording (besides the slur) stems from xkcd creator Randall Munroe‘s book What if?.

If you compare the image to actual xkcds, you’ll notice, that the font is different.

Also, I found a picture of the comic from the book on pinterest.

Can’t have people think xkcds could be this tasteless.

[-] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 36 points 8 months ago

Weird, why would someone rewrite a joke to land on the same punchline

[-] accideath@lemmy.world 22 points 8 months ago

I mean, the first rewrite (by Munroe himself) was probably just turning a 5min doodle into a clean, more streamlined comic.

The n-word one probably just to be edgy.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 12 points 8 months ago

Edgy = racist but a coward about it

[-] accideath@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

As most racists are when confronted

[-] frunch@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

Ahhh thanks for the clarification! I should have known ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] Railing5132@lemmy.world 29 points 8 months ago

I can't remember the # of the original, but I'm certain that's not what it said. Randall wouldn't use that, and that's not his font.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 19 points 8 months ago

It seems to be from his "What If" book and it wasn't "nigga" but "dude"

[-] Railing5132@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Confirmed. The one 'reference' book I have on my desk. Page 3. The font and line layout is completely changed. The last sentence reads: "and the wolf was like, "dude.""

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world -3 points 8 months ago

It looks like a generic XKCD

[-] sxan@midwest.social 21 points 8 months ago

One pig didn't build a house, but a wide, shallow, encompassing tremch which he kept filled with nitrogen gas.

He never had any problem with wolves.

[-] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 5 points 8 months ago

There is the question of how to remove the anaerobically decaying carcasses that keep piling up and filling the moat, however. The wolves stay away, but so does everybody else at this point.

[-] CaptainBasculin@lemmy.ml 8 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

You'd think the wolf would be satisfied after breaking into 79th pig's house and stealing it all. It should cover being able to eat all sorts of meat for its whole lifetime.

Though I'd imagine it dying in 17th house in the first place.

[-] Patches@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Plot twist: The wolf is a capitalist. It will never be sated
