"I'm gonna use a word I really shouldn't use. But people might get mad at me for doing so. But on the other hand, the word is really edgy and cool... That's it! I'll just cover up part of the word so people don't notice I'm using it! I'm so smart!"
- Originally in the book it seems to have been "dude", then someone made a post where they changed it to "nigga", but it wasn't censored. Later on someone decided to censor the word. So not the same people at work there (I mean, I think not lol)
  
  It's still dumb as hell tho.
- Over a popular webcomic’s art so that uninformed backlash may be directed towards the artist they freebooted from
- When searching for the first half of the quote I quickly found the uncensored version on ifunny… (like the 4th result on DuckDuckGo images)
  
  Took a little longer to find the original comic, where the wolf just says "dude"
- I swear, I was just trying to write the name of the country! I didn't know it only had one G!
Hmm, this implies that pig #1 built his house out of hydrogen...
- We refer to him as the sun god now
- What a foul
I think this should be changed to "really dogg" because wolves might call each other dogg but could get offended if a pig said it.
- The wolf is the one saying it, gotta think of something pigs would find offensive
  
  Officer.
  
  bacon
- Doggo is our word
Did the first pig build their house out of hydrogen?
- it was veery easy to burn down
  
  Well, burn up
  
  The Cadmium and Astatine houses would be rather explodey as well
- Helium would definitely be an easy win for the wolf.
Damn, never seen an xkcd where they used that kind of language! 😳
- It‘s not original. The joke originated in xkcd 821 (Five Minute Comics Pt. 3), however it was a little different still. The wording (besides the slur) stems from xkcd creator Randall Munroe‘s book What if?.
  
  If you compare the image to actual xkcds, you’ll notice, that the font is different.
  
  Also, I found a picture of the comic from the book on pinterest.
  
  Can’t have people think xkcds could be this tasteless.
  
  Weird, why would someone rewrite a joke to land on the same punchline
  
  Ahhh thanks for the clarification! I should have known ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- I can't remember the # of the original, but I'm certain that's not what it said. Randall wouldn't use that, and that's not his font.
  
  It seems to be from his "What If" book and it wasn't "nigga" but "dude"
- It looks like a generic XKCD
One pig didn't build a house, but a wide, shallow, encompassing tremch which he kept filled with nitrogen gas.

He never had any problem with wolves.
- There is the question of how to remove the anaerobically decaying carcasses that keep piling up and filling the moat, however. The wolves stay away, but so does everybody else at this point.
You'd think the wolf would be satisfied after breaking into 79th pig's house and stealing it all. It should cover being able to eat all sorts of meat for its whole lifetime.

Though I'd imagine it dying in 17th house in the first place.
- Plot twist: The wolf is a capitalist. It will never be sated
