Sprankton: A disease you get by chewing too much.
This gibberish has been deleted from the English Wikipedia twelve times since May of 2005. It persistently reappears, and is therefore currently bolted down in its current (uninteresting) state.
It's amazing that people are so persistent in inserting such useless nonsense into Wikipedia. I can understand the people who are aggressively reinserting their business or their garage band or whatever; fame and fortune are obvious motivators. But who stands to benefit from "sprankton" being defined as "a disease you get from chewing too much"?
Well, apparently it's a rather lame flash video. You can't tell this from the lame attempts at an article on Wikipedia, mind you, and there's no reference to it. I'm not going to link to it here; it doesn't need my publicity. But I still find it fascinating that there's some kid out there who is so entranced by this that, a year later, he's still willing to insert this nonsense definition into Wikipedia.

Oh wow, a fatty with no sense of humor. I'm less than surprised or amused.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Agreed!
DeleteSprankton; n. A disease you get from chewing too much.
ReplyDeleteI submitted it once. I thought people might add to it and clean it up. I don't really know enough about sprankton to write about it, but if a doctor or a specialist could write it, we would all learn a lot more.
ReplyDeleteIt's a disease you get from chewing too much, you ignant moran!!
ReplyDeleteSprankton. A noun. A disease you get from chewing too much
ReplyDeleteI don't think the writer of this article realizes the horrors dozens of people go through every year while dealing with sprankton. No one can truly understand sprankton and be ignorant enough to write the things 'Kelly Martin' has said. So, in order to clear things up so that Kelly can become a 'better blogger' (oxymoron) I will be giving my expertise on sprankton.

ReplyDeleteI bet she dresses like a goth chick.
ReplyDeleteIf it's been submitted that many times ,then it's notable enough to be submitted and categorized as a fictitious disease AT THE VERY LEAST. C'mon wikipedia, ssto being stupid.
