Check your spelling, grammar, and punctuation, people! Grrrr!
[edit] Why I'm here, I think...
OK, here's the deal. Wikipedia makes me crazy, because everything to do with politics in it is riddled with biases. Let's not pretend otherwise; we all know some of the articles are a joke. It's why "certain" blogs (which is where I spend most of my online time) and blog commenters reference Wikipedia incessantly, and others (people like me) scoff at Wikipedia references. As long as my attention is here, I want to try to pick away at these problems. It IS supposed to be an encyclopedia, isn't it?
Yeah, I know all this contradicts my association with Apathetics, but "AAW" is my out if I throw up my hands and say "fuckit."
Yay, shiny objects!
