Wikipedia is awesome. Any time I want to understand any pop culture reference, it's there for me. Do you remember, there was a time when we were kids, that if you were trying to remember some fact and it wouldn't come to you, you just didn't know it until you found someone who happened to know? The very idea!

It just warms my heart how many geeks there are out there who desperately want to explain things to me, precisely and coherently.
