Anonymous user here--I just noticed that, out of the first ten references, about half a dozen are to Christian POV web sites, though the information attributed is general and not POV.

I really think someone ought to put in a bit about the xkcd cartoon about this. If no one objects, I could work on it, but if someone is better at this stuff, feel free. It's at: http://xkcd.com/446/. [[User:Bigroryg|Bigroryg]] ([[User talk:Bigroryg|talk]]) 23:36, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Great, i came here to make a joke about the idea of an article about the use of "in popular culture" in popular culture. surprise, we have a subsection on this. now, if we can find evidence in popular culture that this recursive meme itself is being spread, we can have a further subsection with the title of this comment. anyone for infinite recursivity? Oh, its in here already...well, that's actually really cool.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:11, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs an In Popular Culture section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.91.201.209 (talk) 21:37, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

yes, since it already has this section, i agree it needs this section, otherwise the section would no longer exist, and the emptiness therein would become a black hole eating up all of WP:)Mercurywoodrose (talk) 07:19, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
