"Never use Wikipedia," my college professors warned me back in the day. However, while it may not be the best source of information for doing academic research, Wikipedia is a treasure trove of interesting bits of knowledge. There are about 7,093,228 articles in the internet's encyclopedia, and some of them are straight-up comedy gold.
For example, did you know that Scooby-Doo's real name is Scoobert Doo? Or what the heck "smirting" is? We've found the times people goofed around and put the funniest pictures to accompany Wikipedia articles or created new ones for things like "fart lighting." Nothing goes better together than serious descriptions of nonsensical things and the goofy pictures that accompany them.
