No really, look at this. Encyclopedia Dramatica completely drained my processor power and used amazingly 1.5 gB of stuff crap in Firefox memory.

And I only had a few tabs open.

This really is the most wiki thing after Uncyclopedia's AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA page.

Anybody else had any wierd encounter with a wiki?

EDIT: Damn. Forgot the image link.

Just don't go to ED. You are better off. I mean, really, they replace "Youtube" with "Jewtube". It is unfunny bullshit.

Yes, stay away.

Eyes of the beholder.  And considering it, you are not part of their target audience.  And yea, keep out.

[Zironic]

I may lose hours to wikipedia, but I will no longer loose my soul to Encyclopedia Dramatica.

[BigFatDwarf]

OMG WTF??

Okay, I'm never gonna to ED again. I just puked out my dinner while watching the Goatse article.

Really, don't go there.

[Errol]

That's just going to motivate more people to go to that page. I don't want to think about it too much now lest I need the brain bleach... trust me, you will SCREAM for it. *eurgh*

[BigFatDwarf]

Still, ED makes great articles sometimes just because they don't need the neutral point of view.

For example, they did point out nicely all the flaws on Fallout series (about how shittingly unrealistic it is about radiation and science in general.)
They might seem a bit over-exaggerating all the facts and they do have lots of porn pics related to that subject (yes, even on Fallout page), but they really hit the nail on some things.

And it's one of the rare sites with a comprehensive report on attack on Scientology by Anonymous.

So I guess it's not all that bad. Even though they have a lot of shock stuff like Goatse.

Uncyclopedia and ED are incredibly unfunny why would you ever go on there

I guess unless you want to know why Fallout sucks or something

For example, they did point out nicely all the flaws on Fallout series (about how shittingly unrealistic it is about radiation and science in general.)

Keep in mind that Fallout is focused on SCIENCE! in terms of how people saw radition and science in the 1950's. Of course, it is supposed to be unrealistic, the game is based on the incorrect viewpoints of the 1950's, where a real life anyalst stated that it would only take around 20 years for the US to recover from a nuclear war.

they replace "Youtube" with "Jewtube"

Wow, I would have gone with something that makes fun of the top 5 channels on Youtube.

[userpay]

I did find ED article on Fallout somewhat ammusing especally since I found this video

on it which I though fit perfectly. Not to mention some of the pictures were somewhat funny

To each his own, I guess.

I must say this is the first time I heard of this. Got any cite or something?

Anyway, it is nice to see they don't take sides with any party, even if that means dissing everything. Especially hilarious is how they not only hate Wikipedia, but also mention lots of proof they hate it for. (And it's true too. There are quite a few bat shit crazy moderators in there.)

You guys take this stuff too seriously though. It's a wiki made for the lulz.

But really, is there anyone here that doesn't think ED is a piece of crap with no humor whatsoever?

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/World_of_Tomorrow

The Fallout world is an anachronistic setting historically divergent from our own, and also is fundamentally different in terms of how science works. The base concept for the setting is a 1950s World of Tomorrow, decimated by a global atomic war. This means that before the war, the Fallout world was more or less what the people of the 1950s thought things would be like in 2077, a future as envisioned through the lens of the Atomic Age and Jet Age. This means hovering housecleaning robots and laser guns were the norm, and automobiles looked like Motorama concept vehicles from the 1950s: massive tail-finned and chromed behemoths but with nuclear fusion engines. At the same time, clothing styles and building interiors and furnishings apparently remained very much stuck in the 1950s. Posters and signage also largely harken to this decade. Radio remains the most common mass media, and food products are based on those popularized in the TV dinner era (boxed macaroni and cheese, canned meat, Salisbury steak TV dinners, etc.).

...

The Fallout world does not merely diverge historically. The laws of physics in the Fallout universe are fundamentally different. The "World of Tomorrow" theme is not limited to what technologies exist and how history unfolded; it also applies to the laws of physics, where Science!, not science, is dominant. In our world, we know that exposure to ionizing radiation merely causes disruptions to cell mitosis (brought on by faulty DNA replication because of the shifting of nucleotides (mainly thymine) by radiation particles), causing cancer and death. In the Fallout world, however, severe radiation isn't always fatal, and it occasionally produces unlikely or impossible mutations including increased size and, in the case of ghouls, extremely long life coupled with a decaying body. Classic movies like Them or The Fifty Foot Woman, in which freak nuclear accidents caused giant ants or people to appear, are good examples of the Fallout universe's take on scientific principles.

All science behaves the way it was popularly portrayed in 1950s pop fiction. For instance, in the Fallout universe, slight irradiation functions like a preservative to keep pre-war foodstuffs edible and unspoiled for hundreds of years. A new beverage product, Nuka-Cola Quantum, deliberately contains a Strontium isotope for lift and kick (and to create an appealing lavender glow!). Finally, functional compact directed energy weapons exist, with a nod to Nikola Tesla's research, and such are capable of burning targets to a pile of ash. Robots are capable of hovering about using tiny jet thrusters that never run out of fuel, presumably due to some sort of internal fuel generating system powered by fusion cells.

Ohhkay, I give up.

What about the other flaw, made with the latest DLC Mothership Zeta?

I mean, Bethesda raped the whole story by making aliens as the cause of war.
Originally, it was more like, no matter how bad humanity screws up Earth and everything, they will survive, if just to repeat it all.

Now it's just like a bad Sci-Fi movie, where we're at whims of a galactic master civilization. Until we kill them, as they with all their weaponry and advanced technology can't kill us.

I mean, aliens started the war? Sheesh. If I listen closely, I can hear Interplay developers turning in their grave, even while they're not dead already.

EDIT: Done.
