Sense of humor failure at Digg
John: This afternoon I decided to play a little joke on Digg and Reddit by submitting a story about recursion that pointed from the Reddit story to the Digg story and back. Since Digg URLs are totally predictable it was possible to set this up by writing the Reddit story first (and they don't verify that URLs work) and the posting the correct Digg story with the Reddit link (which I couldn't predict).
It's a classic programmer joke (it's even in the Digg Programming section).
And for that my Digg account was cancelled without warning.
