  1. I love wikipedia pages with embedded in-jokes. I found a mountain page where only failed ascents are listed, and only amusing failures are detailed. No mention of successful ascents, not even the first. And it's only funny if you know why. (No link because some humourless pedant might edit it.)

  2. Favourite injoke a writer has embedded in something?

    I think I've got to go with this absolute masterpiece of bait & switch from Sir Terry Pratchett.

    I can only aspire to construct a layered joke within my work that rings the audiences bell so thoroughly.
