AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Since this was discussed in the unimportant topic, I thought I'd bring it here.

Anyone ever get on Wikipedia and find themselves linksurfing to a completely different thing?

In this thread, you get to see how far you can get away from the original topic in 10 clicks.

Bonus points if you make it to Kevin Bacon in 6 or less.

This thread is also for anyone wanting to share weird experiences with wikipedia, like suddenly realizing you were looking up plants and now you're reading an article on why Apatosaurus is the correct term for a particular dinosaur, and why everyone you've ever known is wrong for calling them Brontosauruses (Brontosaurii? I should look that up).

So pick an page, read through it, and click links that interest you. When you're done surfing, provide links to the first and last thing you read, and maybe links to particular pages you really digged. Maybe people will find interesting things to read in this thread and hate this thread for stealing their time.

I recommend that everyone read the page for Earth, as it is the most objectively written article ever. It reads as though the writer(s) are from another galaxy or something.
