Wikipedia Plans Protest Shutdown, I Fucking LOVE It

All the wires are starting to light up with a story wherein Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales says they will disable the site on Wednesday to protest all the shitty anti-piracy legislation before Congress.

I fucking LOVE it.

Just gonna throw this out there. If you’re like me and you pretty much really only use the internet to make yourself look smarter and to help lubricate the rough, dry and tight orifice that is life, then you know in your heart of hearts that you cannot go ONE SINGLE GODDAMN DAY without consulting Wikipedia about something. Either just straight going to it and looking shit up, or by Googling something and having the Wikipedia result end up being the only thing returned that isn’t porn or tin foil hat shit.

And I know you are out there my brothers and sisters, AND WE ARE LEGION.

We work in government, schools, hospitals, the arts, advertising, finance, technology, independent trucking and a million other barely white-collar jobs around the world. We are the glue that holds the fragile new economy together, a burden which we gladly took on since it meant we could embark on a lifetime of paying off our student loans.

And yeah we are going to royally fucked on the day Wikipedia is down.
