Not pictured: The dynamic and eternal back-and-forth in the comments section of that article where Wikipedia purist nerds do battle with Wikipedia’s cadre of silly gooses.
Purists hate that “cetacean” is used here and feel that the silly gooses are diluting the information on Wikipedia for a pun. They also complain that visitors to that page will be confused by the term, and that it will cause the social credit of Wikipedia as a whole to wane in the eyes of the world.
The gooses want the purist nerds to take a chill pill. I’m with the gooses. If the purists knew how often scribes in ancient times doodled pointless things like mounted snail combat and wildly exaggerated dick drawings on illuminated manuscripts then I’d presume they’d be okay with allowing a minor joke like this one, but I guess you can’t please everyone.
Mmmerican, first time in Europe, in Brussels, graffiti all over centuries old statues. Like wtf?? Right… there shit is just this shit, so it’s where they do their shit

Humans never change.
Romans carved and painted grafitti on plenty of things over the centuries they were around.
Let the silly gooses be goofy goobers, I say. Maybe humans in 1500 years will have a chuckle.
That if Wikipedia survives 1500 years. Digital media tends to be much more fragile than traditional ones in that aspect.
Well, that if we survive 1500 years, but I’ll let that for another discussion.
Fun fact: you can download the whole wikipedia and use it offline.
But how long will your storage media last? Will the technology required to read it still be available in 1500 years?
