Talk:745: Dyslexics

Can someone explain this sentence: "I kept doing 'doing 'doing it wrong' wrong' wrong."? Other than the 3 nested quotes, I don't get the point. Djbrasier (talk) 16:10, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

He's expanding the "it" in "doing it wrong." The joke of the comic itself is that the dyslexics are having difficulty making a mistake--they're doing "doing it wrong" wrong. In the title-text, Randall reveals he was having difficulty doing that wrong--he was doing "doing "doing it wrong" wrong" wrong. --Hatkirby (talk) 07:17, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

It's a nested statement. Perhaps made clearer with parenthesis. He's {doing [doing (doing it wrong) wrong] wrong}. In other words. He's incorrectly executing the incorrect execution of "doing it wrong" 199.27.128.112 03:27, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

A := "doing it wrong"
This is referring to the mispelling of 'unite' as 'untie' by the dyslexic designer of the T-shirt.

B := "doing A wrong" == "doing 'doing it wrong' wrong"
This refers to Randall's purposefully mispelling 'untie' as 'unite' to parody the The Far Side comic (which spelled 'unite' as 'untie').

C := "doing C wrong" == "doing 'doing 'doing it wrong' wrong' wrong"
This refers to Randall getting confused and writing out 'untie' instead of 'unite'. He is messing up his parody of the The Far Side joke.

I think you meant to say "doing B wrong" at the end instead of C. 108.162.210.232 18:41, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

"an invresion" is likely a typo but it's on-topic so I'm totally leaving it there 188.114.97.133 00:54, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

I actually saw "untie" on first glance... that sukcs... flewk (talk) 10:09, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
