Default Wikipedia

Anyone else ever find yourself on this site, clicking link after link, reading all sorts of useless information that you find interesting at the time?

I just went to the "Best Fight Scene" thread where the movie "They Live" is mentioned. I remembered that as a kid, so I googled it, ended up on Wikipedia.

After about a dozen links clicked and countless paragraphs, I found myself reading about the Vietnam War.

Oh, and did you know that Jim Morrison had in his possession Oliver Stones first screenplay when he died in Paris?

I remember I used Wikipedia as a source in one of the many arguments me and fuzzylumpkins had, I think it was about whether or not Fred Thomas was a bust

good times

I sure do.

It's amazing sometimes how far off the original subject I will get.

I love WWII History and you could read articles forever.
