You should also note the reference to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roses_are_red - which should be quite obvious though. --108.162.229.61 06:34, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Is there any guidelines for making a transcript? In my opinion any explanation of the comic should stop at a note of who deliver the line. Only when it is not clear in which order a text should be read or for special comics should there be anything else than written text from the comic. Kynde (talk) 11:50, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Take a look here. It was a (short) discussion about transcripts. greptalk12:20, 04 April 2014 (UTC)

If I'm not terrible mistaken, this is not how metamaterials work. Can anybody link me a work about wavelength-shifting metamaterials? 108.162.210.249 16:35, 4 April 2014 (UTC) (whoever put this on grep's talk page... it's supposed to go here)

I have a feeling this cartoon would be funnier if it was how metamaterials work. But what do I know about metamaterials? The reference to Instagram was pretty funny, though. Why people want to wreck fine photos is beyond me. 108.162.225.157 05:08, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

For red to turn into blue, you still need a nonlinear medium and a lot of red. Or maybe a temporally modulated medium with a modulation similiar to the frequency of visible light...? (This needs to go in the discussion. Not the explanation. FTFY. You are welcome. ;) 173.245.55.67 20:25, 4 April 2014 (UTC)BK201
