I see what you did there. LOL
I can has cheez in the microwaves.
This person dunno how make proper graph!!!!!!!!!!!!! On the x axis/bottom it should be the independant variable (for example, time) and on the y axis/vertical one it should be the dependant variable (for example cheeziness) Dependant variable is what changes depending on the independant variable!!!!!
Was just thinking the same thing.
yup totally.
i mean, it’s still funny and true, but, hey, you put that much effort into a good graph, let’s check your axis.
Perhaps this is a graph of a function of cheese meltiness into time! Then the axes would be properly labelled.
YES! ARGH! THIS GRAPH IS SO AGGRAVATING!
End rant.
Ya but if they did the graph mathematically correct, the cheese wouldn’t “melt” ^^
*sigh* Independent values on the x axis. . .
*sigh* Whiny, nitpicking assholes like you.
*sigh* It’s not nitpicking, it’s intelligence.
*sigh* nitpicking is lack of wisdom not intellegence
Seriously
This is pretty brilliant I must admit.
Ya, that what happened when you stop time at 15 sec into the cooking. Then stop it again at 19 sec.
Things got all shot to hell when you mess with time.
Nah I get the idea of the graph, but these things are funnier when I don’t notice a huge mistake…
The graph states that as the cheese melts perfectly, the time suddenly jumps from 15 to 19 seconds…
That’s not a mistake. The graph is meant to show an extremely short interval of time.
like man at work once said, it’s a mistake.
it wouldn’t be a mistake if time was on the x axis and melty-ness was on the y axis (or if the graph image was transposed)
Exactly. It’s like listening to a Black man: you know what they are trying to say even though their lips are really just making garbled nonsense.
wow.
well, he’s not even nitpicking. You can’t just throw around axes randomly.
Good job defending yourself, but he was right in the first place (even if he
and everyone commenting including me are kind of smug and obnoxious).
Makes no sense.
No, Mr. Meh, with the axes set up like that, the graph shows an indeterminate amount of time existing at some time just past 15 seconds. Time then moves from 15 seconds and through 17.33 seconds. Time then stops just short of 19 seconds and remains there for an unknown amount of time.
Had the axes been done properly, the graph would have made perfect sense. This is not to say I cannot understand what is trying to be conveyed, but reading the graph exactly as it is, it makes no real sense.
You proved his point.
It’s just pain wrong. Sorry if that makes one think for a minute.
I know its wrong. It really shouldnt detract from the humor.
It’s a nice humor, except the deliver was messed up. It’s like a brilliant joke with a messed up punchline.
I did say, “This is not to say I cannot understand what is trying to be conveyed…” which means I get the joke.
No, at 15sec it shoots from solid to perfectly melted, then stays perfectly melted for a few sec, then shoots to scalding goo at 19 sec.
Just tilt your head.
that’s correct, sir. good point.
tilting your head doesn’t work either!!! if you do that, the line needs to be inverted. the graph still doesn’t make sense. here’s how it should be

There you are thinking you’re all smart when actually Mr. Fail you just proved his point that they’re are nitpiking assholes on here.
Well done.
If you want to put it in context, then the implication of the graph is that meltingng cheese CAUSES time to progress in a non-linear fashion.
This sounds like a rather wonderful spaghetti-monster type hypothesis that I would love to explore further, but I suspect the rather more prosaic answer is that time progressing (in a linear or non-linear fashion) causes cheese to melt.
WIN.
When you say “they’re are”, you are actually saying “they are are”, as “they’re” is of course a contraction of “they are”. I imagine you instead meant to say “there are”, using a homonym of “they’re”, to say that “there exist nitpicking a-holes on this board”.
/…
It’s nitpickers that make the world go ’round, so I’m fine with that. You think the computer you’re typing on or the internet connection you use would function without the nitpickers behind it? Guess again.
Nitpicking is needed in a lot of areas.
Humorous graphs arent one of them.
too true
There’s somewhat of a difference between nitpicking and being thorough. Being thorough is a good quality, especially if one works in a field that requires exact precision and attention to detail. Nitpicking is often used insultingly, when someone tries to be overly thorough in trivial situations where it REALLY, REALLY ISN’T NEEDED. Jeez, do you try to point out logical impossibilities in cartoons, too?
But graphjam is for a smart audience, and thus its graphs should be properly made.
And anyway, Wall-E was filled with logical impossibilities, and I pointed them all out until my gf told me to shut up
Congratulations, sir. I am honored on this day of march 1st, 2009 to deem you a complete and utter lifeless joysuck, for prominent achievement in supreme douchebaggery. now, come up here and get your “freaking medal”!
you sir are win
No one wins on the Internet.
I remember watching independence day.
You know that scene where the president’s wife is in her bed, dying, and talking?
My dad chuckled throughout the scene because it doesn’t work like that in reality.
We told him to shut up too.
Fixed:
There you are, thinking you’re all smart when you (Mr. Fail) actually just proved his point that there are nitpicking assholes on here.
Well done.
You’re welcome, by the way.
was not needed
Just what I thought when I saw the graph. Friggin independent values on the friggin x-axis.
The creator took one too few science classes and fell asleep in the ones pertaining to creating an X-Y scatter plot
snakes on planes reference ftw
axis fail
Yes, and it’s confusing! Also: secondary fail of non-linear time markings.
Also, Allies fail.
Good subject matter, poor graph formation.
Try again.
lol
making sense fail.
haha, ya at 15 seconds it’s both solid and melted…
Yep, for some reason cheese can exist in multiple states at the same point of time. Any straight horizontal or vertical lines on this type of graph doesn’t make sense.
nope. not funny.
Way to fail at basic graph conventions, bud
Wait…. I don’t think that graph expresses what you want to.
…and this is the time when this feed gets out of my rss feeder.
Time travel with chz!
Oh sure it would have been funnier with inverted axis but c’mon, its way better than many of the graphs here. Ain’t it? Well, you get points for creativity from me anyway. So there!
yeah, so what if it’s mathematically incorrect get the joke move on and go do something else
I do not think this graph means what you think it means.
princess bride reference! ftw
FAIL. At 15 seconds it shoots from solid to perfectly melted, then stays perfectly melted for a few seconds, then shoots to scalding goo at 19 seconds.
It’s supposed to do that. Therein lies the joke.
FAIL. That was the point.
that was not the point. the author wanted to convey that the cheese goes from solid to scalding goo in a very short time, being perfectly melted for just an instant. but what the graph says is that the cheese is perfectly melted for 4 full seconds, from 15s to 19s.
Rearrange the axes to convention and the qraph goes up, right, up.
Also, keep the lolspeak where it belongs.
Engrish.
Wtf.
Spell “cheese” and stop pluralizing words that should be singular.
THIS IS NOT NO STINKIN LOLCATS.
Actually, “cheez” is a common spelling for “pasteurized process cheese food,” also known as Velveeta.
Double negatives are fine, though.
If you wanted to use proper grammar and spelling, it should be called “Cheese in the Microwave,” not “cheez in microwaves.”
Also, the x axis should probably be labeled 15, 17, 19, with one of those jagged lines at the bottom to show the skip from 0 to 15. . . .
If I made a mistake in my correction of the graph’s numbers, please don’t beat me up. I’m not an algebra/geometry wizard. XD
Still, this makes sense. It’s true that it takes about half a second for cheese to change from lukewarm solid to volcanic fondue.
I had to tilt my head a little to get this one…
Considering dis graph made by kitteh who luvs cheez, pretty gud akshually! Kitteh not get to go to skool to take the fizicks classez.
Bunch of hooman nitpickers need to get a life!
I see what you tried to do there, but the axes should be switched.
Good concept, but time needs to be on the x-axis, and meltiness on the y. Keep the line exactly as it is, and the graph works.
to summarize all the previous comments
good idea, terrible math
FAIL.
maybe next time they won’t sleep through elementary math
Failblog ho!
You forgot the thirty second mark, when said cheese solidifies and becomes distinctly unappetizing. Folks, that is BEYOND scalding, haha.
Yes — with air bubbles throughout, like pumice stone. Orangey-yellow, dairy-based pumice.
This graph is backwards.
I wonder if any of the nitpickers took into consideration the fact that if you put the axis in the “right” place, the cheeZ wouldn’t dribble down the chart the way it does…
yes it would, correcting the axis wouldn’t touch the line
Hey guys… its a f*in CHEEZE graph. This isn’t high order statistics. Not like you need a TI-89 to realize its supposed to be funny. You nerds STRAIGHT KILLED IT.
this would be really funny if it were formatted correctly.
for all of you that think the smart people on here are being nitpicking a-holes;
All we are trying to do is to take advantage of this mistake to impart knowledge on one or more people about how to construct a proper graph. This will give the world one more person who knows how to make graphs and improving life, however slightly, for all.
It’s conversations like these that make me realize that 90% of the world is retarded.. And have no abstact reasoning skills. *sigh*
Delivery is an important part of humor. You know those guys who try to tell a joke but forget half the setup or get the punchline completely backwards? This graph.
Yeah, you may get the joke they were trying to tell, but it still constitutes fail.
what’s cheez? Is it some kind of new cheese?
