You open the wikipedia article about that concept, and open tabs in your browser for all of the links in that wikipedia article that you also don't understand. Eventually, you have 25 tabs open and you hit the terminal point where you understand, then you work your way backwards through the other 24 tabs until you understand it all.

That one website that your English teacher will just never let you use for one fucking project even though it's literally the easiest and most accessible website that anyone can think of.
English Teacher: "If you credit Wikipedia as a source, you're automatically getting an F on this assignment."
Literally every student's thought: "Fuck. Off."

A game you play on wikipedia.org when you're exceptionally bored. It has two variants:
1. Start on any topic, scroll a bit, and click on the first hyperlink you see. Either repeat for a certain amount of time (say 10 or 15 minutes, but can be more or less) or for a certain number of clicks (usually in the 20-click range but can be more or less) and see where you end up.
2. Start on any topic and try to get to any other topic (called the destination) in under a certain amount of clicks (7 is good to start). Common destinations include Jesus, Nazi Germany, USA, ect. Basically, any well-known/really annoying thing is a perfect destination.
Once you get to your end article, either read it or play again, starting from your new article.
