hey bro, i was doing research for my history project on the Cuban Missile Crisis on wikipedia and went into a total wikitrance: I look up at my computer clock, it's been an hour since I started, and I'm reading about Paris Hilton's sex tape!

Wiki-trance 

A hypnotic state, characterized by aimless clicking through Wikipedia for hours on end. May cause loss-of-sleep

Last night around 10:00 pm I was looking up The Critic TV show on Wikipedia. Before I knew it, it was 12:15 am and I knew a little more about Walt Disney, the Epcott Centre and Scooby Doo. Where did those two hours go? They were lost in a Wiki-trance!
