Wiki-walking.

[hellzabeth]

Gotta stop reading Wikipedia.

Firstly because my wiki-walking takes up hours that I could be using to learn things that are not random shit about Queen or bee farming.

Secondly because Wikipedia is a veritable black hole and I will never. Stop. Browsing.

Thirdly because I am in class so I should be listening to Jenny when she talks.

Finally, because inevitably I will end up on the Psychology pages and start diagnosing everyone I know as well as myself. Everyone's a little bit messed up, it's not a crime, and not everyone cares for a diagnosis for their nictophobia or CES or OCD.

I'm so Neurotic Obsessive Compulsive it's painful.

No.

Bad Pidge, stop.

Do you guys ever get carried away with diagnosing yourself? Or even wiki-walking until your cyber-shoes are worn to nothing?

I don't rely only on Wikipedia, because I buy too many history books not to use them. But I've been reading this book about the first fleet to Australia and I want to do a fic outlining England's whole journey there- which is actually really exciting and would feature cameos from the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and France- and then beginnings of the first settlement and so on. I know so many tiny details now I did not need to know which type of fruits the sailors had thrown at them by locals when they came to port (oranges, off the top of my head, I think).

It's like, "Oh, I have a free half hour now I'm done with my homework, I think I'll read about early 20th Century trade negotiations~". At least other history dorks are in it for the cool things like wars.
