Wikipeditis

A cyber disease in which a Wikipedia surfer tries to avoid Wikarpal Tunnel Syndrome by "ctrl-clicking" the blue reference links which appear as tabs within their browser, and inadvertently creates too many tabs. Symptoms include complete confusion and the reading of information with the mistaken understanding as to what topic the information pertains to.
I opened so many tabs the other day that I almost crashed my browser. I must suffer from a bad case of Wikipeditis.

Wikipedia

A free encyclopedia where average people can make an account and rant with false information about people or things that they hate, and naive Americans will pass it as truth because they're too lazy to look for a more reliable source.
"I learned on Wikipedia that Austin Winkler of the rock band Hinder was gay! Wikipedia is a reliable source, so it must be true!"

"My school has an article on Wikipedia. It's North Adams High School, located in Seaman, Ohio. The principal is Mr. Waffle and the vice principal is Mr. Horny."

"According the the intellectual source of Wikipedia, Adolf Hitler died by being attacked by a bear. I always thought it was something along the lines of committing suicide while in hiding, but who am I to criticize the wisdom of Wikipedia?"

Wikipedia Scholar

A person who jumps in on forums who has little meaningful understanding of the topic being discussed and quickly educates themselves via Wikipedia.com. Usually, but not always, these individuals post "points" for debate in the same order as they appear on Wikipedia (a dead give away).
Person 1: Wow! Joe Shmoe sure knows a lot about XYZ...
Person 2: If you look it up on Wikipedia it is even in the order XYZ, just another wikipedia scholar; no real knowledge, thoughts or opinions of their own...

or

Person 1: I didn't realize so and so knew so much about string theory.

Person 2: Yeah, he likes impressing people with his education as a Wikipedia Scholar.

Walking Wikipedia

A Walking Wikipedia is someone who appears to have more definitions inside them than the famous online dictionary. They will bring up nuggets of amazing information, usually totally irrelevant to the conversation and totally pointless. They are generally admired by people for their knowledge of pointless facts.
Guy 1: 'So did we have any English homework?'
Guy 2: 'I think so, yeah'
Guy 3: 'Did you know that a pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes?'
Guy 1: 'Alright you walking wikipedia, thank you but i'm a little busy right now'
