Um, was that a real Feynman quote? I highly doubt it, there was no Mythbusters during his lifetime, or was there?

I hate people who think it is OK to put their own stupid quotes into the mouths of famous people to give them more leverage...

He said it was similar to the posts about the Feynman quote. So the coast is clear, I don't think you hate anyone in this case.

If anyone, xkcd would be the offender here, because he put the rather generic quote into Feynman's speech bubble.
