Get the winter syndrome mug.What you've stumbled into when you go to look something up quickly in Wikipedia only to emerge 3 hours later having followed hundreds of links into myriad topics about which you never thought you would care. Like quicksand, its grip is unrelenting and the more one tries to extricate oneself, the more browser tabs one opens to continue down alternate paths. Usually starts out as a momentary tangent to try to dredge up memories of an old technology or company or natural disaster and quickly turns into an all-day waste of time. Not that learning is a waste of time, but you should really get back to work already. And close some of those tabs.
I only wanted to quickly look up this Senator, but I got stuck in wiksand and now I know all of the African countries by heart and the chemical make-up of capsaicin.

Get the wiksand mug.A person who injects witticisms into a conversation. Usually speaks in an English accent, and his witty remarks are often met with generous "Oh hoh hoh"s.
The witticist can only be defeated by ignoring his clever remarks, which will frustrate him greatly. However, if you attempt to engage a witticist head-on, you are sure to be out-witted by him.

An example of a witticist in action:
Aspiring Writer: "I just defined a word on Urban Dictionary!"
Witticist: "Well, it's nice to see that you've finally been published."
Bystander: "Oh hoh hoh!"
Aspiring Writer: :/

Get the Witticist mug.Someone who thinks they know everything about life even though they've never left the house and experienced anything for themselves. They come off like they're knowledgeable but only for the sole purpose of impressing others. In reality, they're looking up articles on Wikipedia that probably aren't even accurate.
"I know all about the grunge era because I was there when it happened."
"No you weren't, you're just a douchebag Wiki scholar who's never even been outside. Turn off the computer and get a life."

Get the Wiki scholar mug.A reference from a BBC Sci-Fi television series, where the main protagonist, the Doctor, tries to explain time to a character in the episode named Sally Sparrow. And describes that time is a big ball of "wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff." Or a ball of time where you can take any path alter any time line. Which is true, proven by Astrophysicist, Neil Degrasse Tyson.
Now used to describe something as very confusing.
