This one just pisses me off, not because it’s bad, it’s a funny image, it’s just the fact that I know some autistic sadboy is using this as a pfp and that’s what drives me up the wall.

Neil Breen's photo on his Wikipedia page is a picture of him blinking:

Pretty appropriate, really.

For some reason, the main picture on Justin Bieber’s Swedish Wikipedia page is an image of him in a Batman Superman costume

you better be trolling here

Anything in Scottish dialect wikipedia is fun to read, like the junkies in Trainspotting decided to write an encyclopedia. This one, about the Loch Ness Monster is oddly endearing.

Pure poetry, how can you not love "Nessie is aften thocht tae be a muckle kelpie"?

Whoops, that's what I get for posting late at night

From the article about French Creole on French Creole Wikipedia https://gcr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kriyòl_Gwiyannen

That random line in English has just been sitting there since December 2019 without anybody bothering to remove it

Someone should follow up and see if they kashot themselves.

EDIT: Never mind, it's an IP address editor. 206.180.116.2 is somewhere in Pennsylvania, I think, but probably not Roy Philipose.

Glad to see that Wikipedia registers Scottish as the separate language that it is: dialect my ass.

Is this factual? I'm too lazy to look it up and just gullible enough to believe a stranger on Kiwi Farms if they tell me it is.

Yep!

The full article's written like someone who's scrambling to prove that it's obsolete, too. Much like the same treatment the word "faggot" got, that ended up bringing it back just because it offends the sort of mongoloid idiots that edit Wikipedia.

edit: In the page's history, there's a deleted line about how mongolisme is still in use as a word for down's syndrome in French, which links to a 2008 article as its reference. Interesting.

Huh. Learn something new every day I guess. Thanks.

A very important featured article.

It's easy to see where the term came from:

Downs or Mongolian? You be the judge!

So THAT's why the Chinese try to kill or imprison all of their downies.

The More You Know!
I myself learned this term from looking up the movie "Twisted Nerve" (one the melody they reused for Kill Bill comes from) cause it uses it; don't think russian wikipedia had separate page on that, tho.

Oh I've known the term since I was a kid, I just didn't know it's origins is all. Though I always expected it was a jab at the Mongols.

"Mongool" is also how you call someone a retard in Dutch. The more you know!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandering_Jew

In various Pokémon media, including the Pokémon Adventures manga and the Pokémon X and Y games, a character named AZ is cursed with eternal life and wanders in search of his lost Pokémon for the part he played in a war, thus sharing similar qualities with the Wandering Jew.[84]

"Mongool" is also how you call someone an exceptional individual in Dutch. The more you know!

And "Mongo" in German, also derived from Mongolism.
