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.

The thing that gives you (almost) trustable information for work, and what teachers don't allow students to use.
Teacher: "Ok class you can search up the info anywhere"
Me: "Ok ill open wikipedia"
Teacher: Don't use that! they can edit information"
