How did will kill time before Wikipedia ? We probably use to engage in essentiel and creative activities like playing 16bits video games or watching 90’s television, but this is all over now: Wikipedia has made these things obsolete. So, I thought I’d share some Wikipedia finds I stumbled upon while trying to surf the boredom away.
Snowclones
What part of no don’t you understand? –> What part of X don’t you understand?
1985 called; they want their hair back. –> X called. They want their Y back.
Good artists copy, great artists steal. –> Good X A, great X B
I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords –> I, for one, welcome our new X overlords
im in ur base killing your d00dz –> im in ur X, Y-ing your/my Z
These types of cliché sentences are called snowclones, and yes, somebody took the time to put together a chronological list.
Homosexuality laws of the world

Contest to kill 100 people using a sword (百人斬り競争)
Propaganda goes both ways
Tetraphobia
Tetraphobia the East Asian fear of the number 4. It is so common that in some buildings the floor number “4″ is skipped.
Aristasia
Aka “The Feminine Empire”. Aristasia is an all-female lesbian separatist movement/subculture (what’s not to like about that sentence ?). Since men are excluded, the two sexes in Aristasia are “brunette” (feminine) and “blonde” (ultra-feminine). Also they like 20s – 60s music, movies, cars and clothes and seem to practice spanking and other corporal punishments.
I don’t really want to learn more (or the truth for that matter) about Aristasia because the fantasy world I can picture from reading a few paragraphs about it is probably a lot cooler that what this thing actually is.
The top link points to an old version of the wikipedia article on archive.org because almost all the interesting information has been removed from the current one.

Os-tan
This high-level otakuness: if you already know about this, you probably fail at life. Os-tan is the representation of operating systems as moe manga girls. Each OS is assigned a cute fan-created “tan” girl representing it, so for example Windows XP-tan is dark-haired girl with blue eyes. That’s right you’ve finally found something that unites your three greatest passions in life : computer OSs, dojinshi drawing and an interest in 2D underage girls that borders pedophilia.
Also, a whole article about lolcats.
My Little Cthulhu Vinyl Figure : yes, it’s another Great Extraterrestrial Being of Cosmic Evil toy. Nerds can now worship without leaving the house. Cthulhu fhtagn !
