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

In the Comedy of the Commons, the opposite results of the tragedy of the commons effect are witnessed. That is, individuals contributing knowledge and content for the good of the community rather than extracting resources for their own personal gain. Examples of this are free and open source software and Wikipedia.

And the self-congratulation doesn't stop there.

As old as this is, the best line in John Batman's article is still, "Batman was diagnosed with syphilis in 1833."

XD. Even though it probably isn't true, I love it. It's hilarious how people try to make every single thing about the Teletubbies controversial.

If you're into horror movies or have a dark sense of discovery, this list makes an interesting read.

The Game of Flats (an 18th-century English term for sex between women)

This should be the title of a Game of Thrones porn parody.

And I quote the Esteemed gentleman Sir Terry Pratchett: "Mind you, the Elizabethans had so many words for the female genitals that it is quite hard to speak a sentence of modern English without inadvertently mentioning at least three of them."

List of films considered the worst, especially this entry:

The Babe Ruth Story (1948)

The Babe Ruth Story is a 1948 baseball film biography of Babe Ruth, starring William Bendix. The New York Times describes it as "The Plan 9 from Outer Space of baseball biopics". It was rushed to be released while Ruth was still alive. The final scene is notable for Ruth delivering on a promise he made to a young cancer patient that he would hit a home run. Not only does Ruth succeed in fulfilling the promise, but the child is subsequently cured of his cancer.
