I googled most popular wikipedia articles and this came up:

http://boingboing.net/2007/11/21/top-ten-most-viewed.html

Top ten Conservipedia articles are:

1. Main Page‎ [1,906,729]
2. Homosexuality‎ [1,572,713]
3. Homosexuality and Hepatitis‎ [517,086]
4. Homosexuality and Promiscuity‎ [420,687]
5. Gay Bowel Syndrome‎ [389,052]
6. Homosexuality and Parasites‎ [388,123]
7. Homosexuality and Domestic Violence‎ [365,888]
8. Homosexuality and Gonorrhea‎ [331,553]
9. Homosexuality and Mental Health‎ [291,179]
10. Homosexuality and Syphilis‎ [265,322]

Isn't that odd.

I now have an invasion plan for Mars. We'll ride on these bears and conquer the planet.

This is just cool and bizarre, and from what I know, isn't completely understood even with today's tech :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonoluminescence

EDIT : Yep

"The mechanism of the phenomenon of sonoluminescence remains unsettled. Theories include: hotspot, bremsstrahlung radiation, collision-induced radiation and corona discharges, nonclassical light, proton tunneling, electrodynamic jets, fractoluminescent jets (now largely discredited due to contrary experimental evidence), and so forth."

^^ Pretty wild. First discovered in 1934, and still a relative mystery 75 years later.

Am I the only one that didn't know that she's a lesbo?

Srsly?

Srsly?

Are you asking me or Wanda Sykes? If you're asking whether Wanda Sykes is really a lesbian, yes she is. She was on Conan and mentioned "her wife". That's how I found out.

"No, we're not obsessed with this, why do you ask?"

:awe:

No I meant I thought seeing her talk for 12 seconds would make it obvious by then.

I don't have lesdar (I guess).

Why not do the Wikipedia challenge? Go from Queen (the band) to the plain ole cheese page in as few links as possible. You are supposed to shoot for less than 20 pages, I did it in 5.

Would you f&ck her? Neither would any other man, her options are limited.

Wow, I didn't know about this! Why isn't there more research being put into this?

So these guys could successfully thrive on Mars and Venus, given a proper food source?... Woah. :hmm:

How the fuck was this not the first response?

Gay bowel syndrome, which has also been described as gay bowel disease, was named as an illness in 1976 in the medical literature via the journal Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science....

Man I definitely read the title of that journal wrong the first time.

Gay bowel syndrome is a clinical pattern of anorectal and colon diseases which occur with unusual frequency in homosexual patients (the diseases are not exclusive to male homosexuals).

:hmm:
