Found a neat article or spiffy list on Wikipedia? Post it here.

Some of the ones I've found are:

List of problems solved by MacGyver

List of Famous members of Mensa

List of Movies by the use of the F word per minute

I've bookmarked lots of interesting Wikipedia articles on del.icio.us.

Some of my favorites (that you can see by clicking above): Underwater Hockey, Oolong (rabbit), Floccinaucinihilipilification, The Smurfs and communism. There's lots more.

Here's one that I haven't put on del.icio.us: Thagomizer.

Super Bikkuriman

First let me tell you that Super Bikkuriman is filled with Engrish. And this article is so fitting. I mean, just look at it...

"Always with the ray of the absent subscribers and most curious, the characters do not have shade!!!"

Wow.

It's been edited, but you can still see the Engrish on an older version of the page.

I accually own a copy of the game.

And I should say this. This game sets the standered that no game should go this low.

The trucks you race agaisn't don't even move. You can win the game every time.

There's not even sound.

There's something inherently wrong about this page.

I feel sorry for whoever was draftd to make this page, also known as: the list of fictinal apes.

Genius at work.

I notice that Microsoft Works is on this list

Ah, that new version is so much better. Yay for Jesty. I didn't have the nerve to edit it myself as I felt like the article would be insanely short after editing.
But it's not that bad after all.

Thanks. I posted the old article at BJAODN. And that's my favorite wikipedia page of all.

So I was hungry yesterday in the late afternoon and I found a box of Graham Crackers. And I noticed (for the first time) that the word Graham was spelled like a name and not like a unit of measure which is always what I had assumed it to be because each cracker feels as if it only weighs about a gram. So, being mildly annoyed that I didn't know the useless piece of trivia I jumped on wikipedia to research this "Graham" guy.

Behold! The history behind the Graham Cracker

It was invented by a Presbyterian minister/dietitian named Sylvester Graham as part of his grand diet for reduced "carnal" urges. The guy also though ketchup and mustard induced madness. Madness! Roffle.

I like finding out actor historys. 3 of the actors on Xiolin showdown did Final fantasy X and X2. One is the voice of Rikku from Kingdom Hearts. And hes a girl. That suprised me.

I apologize but I edited it. I went through that list and there were no fictional holidays.

Oh, phoo on you for spoiling our fun.

Naah, I understand. XD

For future reference , the letter "L" section of "Fictional Holidays" inexplicably had "List of Homestar Runner characters" written in it.
