My nomination for best wikipedia entry ever
The one for hyphy. Some highlights:
- "18 Dummy" - Getting dumb by drinking Jose Cuervo 1800 Tequila, also known as "Dummy Juice." also, yellow (or "short") busses popularized by hyphy music (specifically Oakland artist Mistah F.A.B.) most commonly are equipped with 18 seats.
- "Going or getting dumb/stupid/ignorant/retarded/hyphy/yellow bus/remedial" - is the main concept, which means having a good time while ignoring society's negative opinion of "uncivilized" behavior.
- "Hyphy train" - A wild, mobile party with a long line of cars with all the doors open, in which occupants ghost-ride, flambost, dance on the hood and roof, and otherwise get hyphy.
- "Thizzle Dance" - A dance associated with Mac Dre's song by the same name, the thizzle dance (thizz dance, thizzing, closely related to going dumb) involves wearing a strange facial expression and waving one's arms and legs in a bizarre or unusual-looking way. "Thizzing" is also associated with shaking one's dreadlocks, getting on the ground, or imitating animals.
This could be a possible QotD, actually-what's your favorite entry in wikipedia?

I personally enjoy the Wikipedia entry on the king of fruit, durian!
"...its odor is best described as pig-shit, turpentine and onions, garnished with a gym sock. It can be smelled from yards away."
"A durian falling on a person's head can cause serious injuries or death because it is heavy and armed with sharp thorns, and may fall from a significant height, so wearing a hardhat is recommended when collecting the fruit."
