Just like defining recursion by: "'''recursion''' ''n'': see recursion" :-) --[[User:JakubNarebski|JakubNarebski]] ([[User talk:JakubNarebski|talk]]) 15:05, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

"D" is a development from an Egyptian hieroglyph symbolizing a door. "U" is [[User:Capncanuck|Capncanuck]] ([[User talk:Capncanuck|talk]])
:"U" is what?! [[Special:Contributions/108.162.212.92|108.162.212.92]] 03:48, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
:: "U" is a dummy variable; "i" is an imaginary number. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.218.215|108.162.218.215]] 11:30, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

I feel like part of the meta-joke is the fact that the box cuts off the definition, literally reducing it. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.69.90|162.158.69.90]] 20:04, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Yes, reductionism reducted, reductionised, and reduced...  [[Special:Contributions/108.162.249.156|108.162.249.156]] 00:40, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

Well, this is probably the first time I've been on here and the Wednesday comic is up on Thursday, but the Friday comic is still on schedule. Weird. --[[User:JayRulesXKCD|JayRulesXKCD]] ([[User talk:JayRulesXKCD|talk]]) 15:11, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

What amazed me in all this is that, every themes or words found on xkcd I've noticed that Reductionism adds to 174 in reverse ordinal and 143 in Jewish ordinal gematria little resemblance to 1743  --[[User:Know More | Know More]]
