Some months ago I was writing about Martin Luther King and I checked out the page for "I Have A Dream" and instead it was called "I'm Have A Boner".

From the Batarang article:

In September 2009 Jeremy was cited for inappropriately using a batarang metaphor to insinuate that something could happen quickly and/or commonly. The argument mounted against him maintained that batman would only use violence (specifically a batarang) in a "situation in which it was unavoidable"

Shortly following said incident a student at the University of Chapped Hicks was killed by a flying bolo-type device. Onlookers said they expected the bolo to fly slowly, thus able to be avoided. However the bolo was much quicker than expected. In fact a new metaphor has been submitted to the Oxford dictionary to describe a quick event as, "faster than a speeding batarang."

I think this has been discussed before.

I've seen the documentary about it, which is surprisingly excellent.

Is Kenneth like the official name of insane, seemingly-edited-but-actually-true Wikipedia subjects?

I watched Zoo. I actually thought it was a pretty lame documentary.

It was all super serious, when the tone should have been one of comedic derision.

We live in a strange world.

But I finally found my proof that cats ARE smarter than dogs.
