WikiHow.com is a wonderfully tragic website. After google directed me there to find out about speed reading, I started following the related links to see what wikihow could teach me. It took about 3 pages to get totally pathetic. I’d like to share with you some of the informative articles available on wikihow.com:

This Saturday night I’ve got two shows! Check it!
7:30pm –
Eliza Skinner is: SHAMELESS!
A show about people you don’t like, but have to love.
Unknown internet poster “David” said of the show:

Dude. Quit it. Quit walking past my cubicle on your way to the bathroom. We both know that you’re going way out of your way, and that unless you need to go to a doctor you don’t need to visit the bathroom that often. Or here – why don’t we compromise: you can keep walking [...]
Every time I start a temp job and they find out I’m a comedian, they always say variations on the same thing: “you’re going to get a lot of material here – we’re hilarious!!” Normally, this is a complete lie, followed only by excruciatingly boring hours of silent photocopying and avoidance.

There are LOTS of things worse than anything written about in a fashion magazine. When I read that phrase I instantly start thinking of [...]
I am cranky today! So please enjoy my ranting and frustrated fist-shaking.
