Best Thing on The Internet Today: Herpderpedia
Did you hear that Wikipedia is down?

The craziest thing just happened to me. Have you heard what’s going on? I went to work on my bio assignment and Wikipedia just wouldn’t work. Like, the page I clicked through to on digestive enzynes only showed up for a second and then it just disappeared and the screen went black and there was all this writing… I’m actually really freaked out right now. WTF is going on? Do you know what’s going on? Like, we’re not in danger or anything, right? Like, did someone hack Wikipedia? People keep writing about soap?

For more instantaneous glimpses into the sheltered lives of others, check out  @herpderpedia (examples below).

Jessica Carroll is the Toronto Standard’s editorial assistant. She’s really pretty and writes a daily column about stuff she thinks is funny/great on the internet. She also tweets at @jssckr.
