#2168: Reading in the Original

XKCD comic, described below.
Transcript

[Cueball is addressing Megan. He is holding a hand with a thumb up out toward her. Megan is spreading her arms out as she replies.]

Cueball: It's in the "Languages" box in the lower left. It took a while to learn, but I find I get so much more out of it by reading it as it was intended.

Megan: That's not how that works!

[Caption below the panel:]

People get mad when I tell them I only read Wikipedia in the original Greek.

Title text:The articles are much shorter, but I assume that's because this version predates the merger with the Hawaiian text that created the modern Hawaiian-Greek hybrid wiki-pedia.
