.I'm sure get the joke; it just isn't as whimsical or funny per usual.
All of the things listed in "In Popular Culture" are pieces of his subculture, our subculture, the Wiki subculture--nerds. One could also draw humor from the fact that the "In Popular Culture" section even exists under something like wood, jabbing heartlessly at the Wiki community's jugular.

There's no "in pop culture" section on wood. 
I think that's the joke
