Does anyone on here go on Wikipedia from time to time to find out where the hell you'll end up? If so, what has been your weirdest, longest, etc. trip? For example, tonight I went from "alternate history novels" to "mermaids".

I like to play a game where I go to a random article and try to get to the article for Pornography by not using the keyboard and just clicking links.

I have a standing ban on wikiing anything related to Britain or military history. The entry for the British Navy is my Kevin Bacon, the ultimate endpoint and beginning of all connections from which there is no escape.
If I click on ANYTHING remotely related to nuclear power, nuclear weapons, the cold war, or soviet russia, I'm gone for hours. There are times when I have come to bed at 4:30am and my wife has woken up and said, "Reading about nuclear bombs again?"

In a long-ago time I spent many hours/week browsing and editing Wikipedia. These days, I'm more likely to get lost on tvtropes.
