Let's be clear on one thing. Wikipedia is an amazing tool for doing any kind of research. Sure, teachers and folk in general have good reason to warn people of how it can be unreliable—after all, it's run by users and dedicated editors. But if you're ever in doubt, check the resources. The internet can't alter that.

What it can do, however, is still have some harmless fun with it. Since anyone can write and edit anything on Wikipedia, it has become a bit of a sport among netizens to slip in details that wouldn't otherwise ever be present in an encyclopedic article. Note that this is considered a form of vandalism and if you are going to do it, do it how this Twitter page does it—in a harmless way with the Inspect Elements tool.

Yep, there is a Twitter page, appropriately called Wikipedia, But I Made Them Up, that "vandalizes" Wikipedia articles using a very harmless browser tool to make it look like it's the real thing, then takes a screencap of it and then everyone laughs at the pure absurdity of it all.

Bored Panda has gathered the best of the best posts found on the page and has created the neat little listicle for you to enjoy below. So, go vote, go comment, share the article with your funny friends, and above all, do not actually edit Wikipedia articles for the fun of it. We'll explain what you can do instead, if you insist on having some fun.

I was curious why one nostril gets clogged when people have a cold, so I did painful years of...OK I Googled it. Our noses only use one nostril at a time. The nostrils are rotated with one held open and one closed (resting). So the resting nostril is the one that gets really clogged up.

IF you have a cold, and a nare feels blocked but you arent getting any mucous out of it. try taking an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen. Sometimes it's actually swollen from the irritation. This has really helped me a lot.

So, Wikipedia, But I Made Them Up is a Twitter page dedicated to sharing screenshots of snippets from Wikipedia articles that don't really exist. It might look like some hooligan edited the article, but we assure you no actual edits were made. Just some technological wizardry.

The page features mostly absurd, and sometimes just straight up spot-on, humor embedded into the Wikipedia environment. And nothing is really safe from this page: illustrations and pictures, the table of contents, the contents themselves, the references, everything that you could ever find in a given article can be altered from very serious to absolutely redonculous.

Note that there isn't any actual vandalism happening. The page itself notes that it uses the Inspect Elements tool to make these edits—they don't actually appear to anyone else other than the person making these changes. The page actually is against Wikipedia vandalism, so if you want to have fun, do it the harmless way explained further.

    My emotionally abusive ex broke one of these once. We were visiting my parents, eating taco salads, and SFB (sh*t-for-brains) tried to scoot his chair back so he could stand up to get more tortilla chips but the back legs stuck on the carpet. He lost his balance and ended up falling and breaking the chair. He was fine, but as we helped him up and I went to get him more chips, my Dad said, "well, I guess it's not your day," pronouncing it like 'nacho' instead of 'not your.' For some reason, SFB didn't appreciate the joke. I can't imagine why....

    On personal computers, every browser has some form of Inspect Elements. It is a web development tool that allows folks to analyze and mess about with specific website elements, among others things. You can access this feature by pressing CTRL + SHIFT + I for Google Chrome or simply press F12 on Mozilla Firefox of Microsoft Edge.

    This in turn opens up the tool where you can find the element selector function (box with a mouse cursor on it) and use it to select the area you want to edit. Once you've done that, the tool should automatically show you where the element is buried in the sea of code, where you should be able to recognize the phrase that you'll want to edit.

    Double click, type in whatever, and you're done. Take a screencap of that and send it to your unsuspecting family or friends. You can actually do the same with any website. Even Bored Panda.

    This image reminds me of the reason why I stopped eating meat altogether. I'd already been cutting out beef and poultry on the bone. And one night I was up late watching tv in bed and a commercial came on (didn't know what it was for). We were shown a tender, sweet moment between a lobster and a human. It honestly looked like they were in the same environment and were about to hold hands/claws, looking so adoringly at each other. Background music was "Happy Together" by The Turtles. The scene then cut to a piping hot steaming lobster being pulled out of a pot with serving tongs and the human smiling in anticipation. The commercial was for Lobsterfest at Red Lobster and the moment we had just seen was of the man selecting his dinner out of the tank. TRAUMATIZED. I haven't eaten meat since. That was in early 2000.

    Not necessarily - to me, as a non-native English speaker, the words grape and grapefruit are for some reason terrifyingly interchangeable :-) Don't know why. In my native language, the words are 'greippi' and 'viinirypäle'. Go figure.

    For the curious, this is a photo recreation of an accident that killed Louis Alexander Slotin. He was a scientist for the Manhattan Project. He was trying to simulate part of the reaction of an atomic bomb. Slotin was using a screw driver that slipped causing the top half to fall creating a critical reaction exposing him to a lethal dose of radiation. The "bruh" moment is because he was not supposed to be using a screw driver.
