Example: Piotr Wysocki -> Poland -> Polish National Catholic Church -> Jesus Christ

So kind of like that Kevin Bacon thing only better.

That sounds like a really good idea.

 

[thehstrybean]

Yes! Yet ANOTHER time waster to pass time when I'm supposed to be working!

I prefer the dried and flaking kind. Preferably from nearby abandoned structures. It tastes better when it's dry.

I prefer the "15 hours of fascinated clicking" from xkcd.

they can not becompaired, it like compairing apples to orange

That's a game that started back in the early days of the web, but back then you had to start at a website and try to get to porn in as few clicks as possible.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Another method is to start somewhere, get at least 10 clicks out, and then try to find your way back to the beginning without hitting any of the pages you've gone through. You can kill an afternoon with 5 clicks to Jesus, but this can kill whole relationships.

 

[arrfep]

Wow I thought I invented that game. The way we play at work is to always start at the front page, and then try to get to whatever the topic is.

 

[clamum]

Haha, sounds sorta fun. Probably would get bored with it after awhile though.
