Yarp. Five feet. Scary. Vancouver's turning into Toronto.
I like how they have a quote from a psychic in the article. This is real journalism :P .

And I found this too:

Cross-dressing students get own bathroom

It sounds to me as if people's feet were actually chopped off...O.o

Interesting, and gay marriage became legal in California recently.

Yeah, the website for my city's newspaper has it. I found it there.

These are AWESOME stories. Transvestite washrooms and feet washing up. Awesome-sauce'um-opposum.

Edit: God damn school comps. The first message died, so I wrote another one, and now they're both posted! Gah!


Fixed for you. I kept the more enthusiastic one. ~Sentynel

Some articles have no importance and shouldn't be on the wiki....

No. I just found out Jimmy Carter (Who the F?), American president got assaulted by a swamp rabbit and the CIA tried to suppress the news.

Priceless.

Wikipedia's unusual articles is one of the best timewasting services EVER. It's great! =D

The actual article isn't that weird, but the title is :blink:

Do you spend a crapload of time in the Sandbox, just doing the internal links, charts, etc. ?

I've never used Wikipedia's sandbox, actually. I learn while editing - there's a perfectly good preview button. Also, I've done vastly more work on other wikis than Wikipedia.

Same. The range of different article subjects I've edited is insane.

I'll second that, and I've done more work on Halo and Star Wars wikis than Wikipedia.

Hmm. I doubt any of you would bother making accounts. Not too much point unless you're really into editing.
And yes I know about the preview button.

On the contrary. I can't think of a single reason not to make an account, even for one or two edits.
