That Diagram on Wikipedia
I love how Wikipedia has become an unstoppable force. Every topic that anyone could possibly want to look up is going to find its way to Wikipedia - posted there by people who are deadly serious about the work they do.
Sigh. I can't blog about this here, because of the risque nature of the link. I know kids check out my blog, so I don't want to post a direct link here. But it'd be a crime against humanity not to share this with you. So here goes-
You know there's that Japanese term for a particular, um, act? It's a Japanese word - three syllables? Starts with the letters B-U-K?
Yeah, that.
Anyways, if you go to Wikipedia and do a search for that term, a page will load... with a tastefully done CARTOON DIAGRAM of the act.
Tasteful. And hysterical.
Some amateur fact-checker went to the effort of designing a tastefully done cartoon diagram to help explain what this is. You can just imagine there's some person who's never been exposed to the term, reads the wikipedia article, sees the diagram, then screams, "OH NO! WHY WOULD SOMEONE CHOOSE TO DO THAT?!?! I NEED TO BLEACH THIS AWFUL KNOWLEDGE FROM MY MIND!"
So what are you waiting for? Go now. Go to Wikipedia and do a search for it. Or email me and I'll send you the link.
And learn more than you ever wanted to learn. Thank God for Wikipedia.
EDIT TO ADD: As of August 2008, the hilarious image has been taken down.

Yeah, that's just... uh, well it gets the point across, doesn't it? Hilarity ensued.
