17 Hilarious Out Of Context Wikipedia Entries That Will Leave You Scratching Your Head
These will leave you with many unanswered questions.
Wikipedia can send you down some very strange rabbit holes, and that is exactly why people keep coming back to it. One minute you are looking for a simple fact, and the next you are staring at a page that makes no sense without context.
That is the fun of these out of context Wikipedia entries, especially when Twitter users stumble across them and share the weirdest parts without explanation. The result is a collection of screenshots that are confusing, random, and somehow very funny.
These are the kinds of entries that make you stop, laugh, and wonder how anyone ended up here in the first place.

This feels like the hidden corners of the world you’ve probably never heard of, just with Wikipedia-level weirdness.

Well, that was definitely a fun read, and I want to say that I think we all learned something new today. Diving into the depths of Wikipedia can be as rewarding as it is educational.
If you were a kid when Wikipedia started becoming more popular, then you've probably taken your own trips into the more hidden parts of the encyclopedia. I remember hours of my life being consumed by the never-ending spiral you follow when you start clicking those random articles.
But regardless of age, I think there's a lot of fun to be had for everyone who decides to check out what Wikipedia has to offer. I think I'm going to go spend a few hours there now myself.
Still scratching your head, check out marketplace finds that are useful one minute and completely unexplainable the next.
