    It’s not funny that they’ve made the M&M’s basically unfuckable now, I haven’t been fully erect for a year now.

        ask him what his stance on OSHA is (he’s against it), and it terrifies me for what his sexual practices must be.

                Deleriant visions are considered equivalent to time travel under the SPARS Act of 2027. Under the Ex Post Facto Act of 2035 that gives me the authority to arrest you right now.

    I don’t have a crazy or funny outline for you, but when it comes to humor and Wikipedia, almost every single act of pettiness on this very long page is pretty damn funny.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Lamest_edit_wars

    The best one actually has its own separate article dedicated to its pettiness:

    Star Trek (I/i)nto Darkness

    Main article: Wikipedia Star Trek Into Darkness debate

    Is it “Into” or “into”? A simple capitalized letter led to, as xkcd neatly summed up, “Forty thousand words of debate”, before suggesting the “compromise” solution of “* StAr TrEk InTo DaRkNeSs *”. Here’s what the horrifying talk page looked like when the xkcd comic was published. A summary of the results was necessary to keep things sane. And that’s over three months before the film’s opening. Starfleet representatives have neglected to comment.

    One time I wrote a program that would convert a wikipedia article into plain text then run that through the say command in mac os terminal.

    For a while I’d put my computer to reading me a wikipedia article to fall asleep to. Or maybe I was trying to learn subconsciously through sleep or something, can’t remember.

    But what I do remember is that listening to the article on The Fermi Paradox, read to me by a robot voice, seemed kind of theatrical and badass, just how it reads.

    This was like 15 years ago so I don’t know if the article still reads badass.
