Death by coconut.

I'm looking at the warning sign, and I'm wondering if the ones heading at mom & dad are falling or aiming.

A coconut nearly did for me in Zanzibar. The Bounty adverts lie. They lie.

That said, the Zanzibari coconuts clearly aren't as aggressive as Hawaiian ones.

From the page on Lorde's "Team":

I am glad Wikipedia's habit of over-explaining pop song lyrics remains intact.

Country songs don't even get an analysis most of the time, I've found. Probably because half of them are "I wanna party with this cutoffs-wearing girl in the back of my truck" anymore.

I wonder if the people who write those songs are even from Dixieland . I've heard a lot of rap is produced by rich white people who aren't actually familiar with urban communities and marketed at people living in the suburbs

That may have been vandalism, but that was pretty funny.

I know people have a tendency to look too deep into things but this takes the cake

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracker_Barrel They included the peg solitaire at each table in the article! That's my childhood right there!

Vandalism again, but fucking hilarious.

This asshole is one apathetic defendant.

List of human stampedes

I like how it doesn't bother to mention how one person falling over somehow led to 12 deaths and dozens of injuries...

This is probably my favorite topic in all the TV Tropes forums.

But anyway, I find it hilarious that Wikipedia has an article on 43-Man Squamish, and the description given is almost as funny as the original article.

Ok, I know there's an article on Wikipedia about post structuralism ? And it was impossible to make sense of, but a redditor was able to present the information in a way a layperson could understand . Do you guys know what article I'm talking about ?

Blonde versus brunette rivalry.

Feels more suited for this website than ol' Wikipedia.

This, maybe?
