  • GeekSwag, on 12/07/2007, -6/+333I've been clicking for 5 minutes! When will it end?!?
    • diidiiidiid, on 12/07/2007, -27/+11When your mouse breaks!
      • ChrisWalkr, on 12/07/2007, -3/+18Then he can use a keyboard!
        • diidiiidiid, on 12/07/2007, -4/+9Then it'll happen when Firefox gets filled with new tabs. Digg opens a new tab every time you click on the link while reddit doesn't
        • AdHaR, on 12/07/2007, -0/+9The *open-in-new-tab* feature can be changed from the digg options.

            make all sites work the way you want them to.
    • Roger, on 12/07/2007, -5/+101TYou should be getting close at this point, it took me about 15 minutes. rust me the ending is well worth it. There is cake.
      • Moskie, on 12/07/2007, -3/+88The cake is a lie.
        • omgwthlol, on 12/07/2007, -3/+40No it's not. Keep trying until you run out of cake.
          (I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS!)
        • travishenrichs, on 12/07/2007, -1/+28We do what we must because we can.
        • Jio666, on 12/07/2007, -1/+23For the good of all of us. Except the ones who are dead. But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake. And the Science gets done. And you make a neat gun. For the people who are still alive.
          • etruscan, on 12/07/2007, -1/+18Stop, please. I'm not even angry.
            I'm being so sincere right now.

      • mobilitatis, on 12/07/2007, -1/+1Looks like a cake but it´s a lie!
    • Shorties, on 12/07/2007, -18/+60You just have to click 42 times then you will have the meaning of life!

        • konspence, on 12/08/2007, -0/+4It's not Google that came up with it, though. It's from the book _The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy_, a book which I haven't read, but still can act like I've read on Digg.
      • SmoothCorn, on 12/08/2007, -0/+12its interesting that this comment was dugg up 42 times, lets keep it that way

    • xptoast, on 12/07/2007, -3/+1True meaning of life and proof at giftofexistence.com/meaningoflife.htm I tried posting this before but then this recurrsion thing gets posted as meaning of life? Oh well.
    • bluepass, on 12/08/2007, -0/+4You guys are clogging the tubes. Don't you get it? The internet is not something you can just dump stuff on - it's not a big truck - it's a series of tubes.

      • Dested, on 12/08/2007, -4/+2lol I usually wouldnt post such a worthless post, but I was the 42second one to digg your comment.

    • BestJaxx, on 12/07/2007, -12/+2Answer to life, the universe, and everything=42
      Answer to life=14
      • hollowturtle, on 12/07/2007, -1/+1for that to be true, you're assuming that life, the universe, and everything all equal the same. While I'll agree that the universe=everything, life
        • winvirus, on 12/08/2007, -0/+4If universe = everything + life, that calls for some interesting math. I'll also assume everything = universe + life.
          Life + The Universe + Everything = 42.
          Life + Life + Everything + Everything = 42.
          Life + Everything = 21. So the Universe = 21.
          Life + Life + 21 + 21 = 42, since Everything = Life + The Universe.
          By that logic, life is worth a value of 0.
        • kalphegor, on 12/08/2007, -0/+3Answer to second life must be 7.
        • zbarnett, on 12/08/2007, -0/+3Therefore the answer to half life is 1.75
    • sepultura, on 12/07/2007, -1/+3http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie ...
    • sgtbutterscotch, on 12/07/2007, -3/+4Great...but what's the question?
    • kutateli, on 12/07/2007, -0/+30Their comments are funnier than ours are. Work harder dammit!
      • SonicRush, on 12/07/2007, -3/+1Pshh, anything is funnier than our comments. I can't believe what some morons will digg up.

  • QGYH2, on 12/07/2007, -16/+9There is no meaning.
    • diidiiidiid, on 12/07/2007, -7/+3Sure it does. If you're on Digg and want to go to Reddit you just click this link and the other way around. That way you wont need to type the address all the time.
    • dotlizard, on 12/07/2007, -5/+3yes there is. it's "because".
    • GhostsAwake, on 12/07/2007, -5/+0unless you create one. Life-Be part of it.
  • kaelyiesta, on 12/07/2007, -10/+57Awesome idea. Reminds me of the piece of paper that reads on both sides: "To read a joke idiots wont get, read the other side" I think I turned the paper over 3 times when I first saw it. I was 8 though.
    • dfdemar, on 12/07/2007, -1/+22Q: How do you keep an idiot in suspense?
      A: I'll tell you tomorrow.

      You are now an STD.
    • colobikeguy, on 12/07/2007, -2/+3I actually went to the wikipedia page on syphilis to see if you vandalized it by putting digg name as a virus. I was looking forward to being a notorious genitalia habitant. God knows it would have been the closest I get to genitalia....
    • alanflores, on 12/07/2007, -0/+14"You are now officially a Greek God"

      ..and your people will be called Sisyphusies

  • Insignian, on 12/07/2007, -4/+21From Endlessvoid94 on reddit:call me a moron, but how did this user do this? to submit a link to reddit, you have to have the link to digg.
    to submit it to digg, you need the already-submitted url to the reddit post! am i overlooking something? how could this be done?

    He makes a good point Edit never mind i kept reading
    • ucg1, on 12/07/2007, -6/+2I'm going to have to call both of you morons.
    • loafy929, on 12/07/2007, -2/+3I'm curious about that very same thing; can you go back and edit your post on either site once you've posted it? If so, i'd imagine you just create one with a bogus placeholder link to something random on site X. Go to site Y, point it to X, and point X to Y. Done. Does it work that way?
      • loafy929, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2um, it's a legitimate question. not to mention i can't see both posts nor have i ever used reddit because it is blocked at work...
        someone could just tell me how it was done, because not being familiar with digg or reddit doesn't mean i'm an idiot. Thanks.
    • DanHawking, on 12/07/2007, -0/+27Digg, luckily, keeps URL trails logical. The first story was probably the one on Reddit, with a link to digg.com/comedy/The_Meaning_of_Life_See_Reddit - from that point, the maker had to make sure he kept the title of the Digg story correct.
      • loafy929, on 12/07/2007, -0/+4I see, thank you for the simple answer :)
        I still think it's funny that reddit is blocked where I work and digg isn't. They JUST got around to blocking Youtube. I imagine my days on digg are numbered.
        • ChromaVita, on 12/08/2007, -0/+18:30am-5:30pm just won't be the same around here without you man...

  • psayre23, on 12/07/2007, -0/+140So which came first? The Digg post or the Reddit post?
    • freff, on 12/07/2007, -2/+35Apparently the Reddit post, since Digg submissions are much easier to predict.

      Wait, what do you mean that was a hypothetical question...
    • COinOR, on 12/07/2007, -1/+31the chicken.
    • joel2600, on 12/07/2007, -3/+69reddit posts always come first. just pay attention to both sites for a couple of days
      • betterth, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2Due to the nature of reddit, you have to post a billion articles instead of have a billion friends like on Digg. Chances are half of the sites Google has indexed have been submitted there at one point or another...

  • joshua5, on 12/07/2007, -6/+53i like their comment system better
    • Greattastic, on 12/07/2007, -7/+1We all whined and complained about it when they first changed it, but it grew on me.

      In the end it seems like they did the right thing with nested comments
      • omarciddo, on 12/07/2007, -0/+11It's not the nested comments, it's the bugginess of it.
    • BlueSkyfish, on 12/08/2007, -0/+5I had more than 3 tabs open and it didn't crash :o

      • hydrodev, on 12/07/2007, -6/+1The best part is what you said means ***** all! I don't have a face book account, and nor do i use Myspace. Nice try though, really.

    [Receives an envelope]
    Thank you, Brigitte.
    [Opens envelope, reads what's inside]
    M-hmm. Well, it's nothing very special. Uh, try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations. And, finally, here are some completely gratuitous pictures of penises to annoy the censors and to hopefully spark some sort of controversy, which, it seems, is the only way, these days, to get the jaded, video-sated public off their ***** arses and back in the sodding cinema. Family entertainment? Bollocks. What they want is filth: people doing things to each other with chainsaws during tupperware parties, babysitters being stabbed with knitting needles by gay presidential candidates, vigilante groups strangling chickens, armed bands of theatre critics exterminating mutant goats.
