Depths of Wikipedia

John Hutcherson, 21, drove home drunk with his friend Francis Brohm, 23, who was hanging out the passenger window while vomiting due to carsickness. Hutcherson drove off the road and sideswiped a telephone pole support wire, decapitating Brohm. He continued the final 12 miles (19 km) to his Atlanta, Georgia, home, parked in the driveway, and went to bed. A neighbor found Brohm's headless body in the truck the next morning.[274][275]

It shouldn't, but this one had me chuckling.

Some of the best stuff on Wikipedia comes from the background arguments surrounding articles. There are some fucking obsessive lunatics that curate that website. One of my favourites was a guy who took loads of pictures of his genitals and used them to illustrate articles that were technically appropriate, but freaked people out because...well, it's Wikipedia, not ratemycock.com.

Most of these are a bit lame, but meh: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_page_highlights

If the Stuarts were still in charge, we would have an openly gay king

Following in the footsteps of Charles the Bold.

And his successor Louis the Outrageous

 

(Round the Horne, 1966)

Anyway we'd have a King Francis and a Pope Francis which would be a might confusing.
