Here, I will collect Random Wikipedia Stuff that I found pretty funny, but isn't really worthy of sticking to other specialised humor collections.

Random collection of interesting phrases

Or, a practical illustration on why we need context to survive.

"Most scripting languages are oriented at banging out Web pages. This is oriented around interfaces that are highly animated.": — James Gosling on JavaFX [1] [2] (In the series of "smart people saying embarrassing things". Yeah. Animation. We clearly need more web interfaces with animation. =)

Unfortunately, this ultimately looks awkward as dinosaurs often stumble around and contort to wild, impossible positions.: — Jurassic Park: Trespasser [3]

More funny stuff will come later when I find the file I was maintaining once, and remove the BLP'd stuff...

"What's going on?"
Confused wolves are funny!
Infrared dogs are funny! Canid fur is goo-ood at not letting too-oo much useful heat escape, so dogs and wolves do just fine in the North! (I somewhat wonder if there are infrared foxes out there!)
In Finnish Wikipedia, this picture is captioned "George H.W. Bush and Gorbachev in Helsinki in 1990". Politics is difficult! I would have never guessed what this picture was about without the caption!
Can artificial objects be considered "cute"? Space Shuttle Discovery looks pretty adorable here.
I'm tempted to put a label to my Guitar Hero controller, next to the Xbox Guide button: "This Button Starts Up Xboxes".
Yeah, it's clearly 3 AM when I find this stuff funny.
Is this decent? I... don't know an answer to that question. Is it clever? Uh, I suppose!
I know there's a video game called Tetanus on Drugs. But have you seen Titanic on Drugs? (OK, it's really the Olympic, but still.)
"What the heck nowww?"
"That was so funny! How did it go again?"
"I'm a turtle. Honest. Some joker pulled the plug. Could you please re-inflate me?"
