Wikipedia is a great site full of lots of useful information. Unfortunately, it's also full of a bunch of filler that makes the truly useful and relevant information pretty hard to find without delving into it. Thankfully, the folks over at TL;DR Wikipedia have taken all the searching out of trying to find out what you need to know about a subject on Wikipedia. One quick glance at their site and you will be laughing for days as they oversimplify everything from car companies to common household items. Check out 10 of the best examples.

#1 I'm talking with the man in the mirror.
Everybody has a mirror somewhere in their homes. I should know because 95% of all selfies found on the internet were taken in someone's mirror. I think I've seen more mirrors online than I have people.
#2 The good old days of the Internet.
Do you remember using Internet Explorer? I know I do. I can fondly remember having to wait 12 hours for a webpage to load up on my slow 56k dial-up connection. Now that I think about it, the good old days sucked!

#3 The real Iron Throne!
Depending on how wasted you have been in your life, most alcoholics know what it's like to spend an evening praying to the porcelain god. It's not nearly as fun as they make it look in the movies.
#4 Oh my, how exciting!
Exclamation points might be the most misused form of punctuation known to man. In the hands of a teenager, this unassuming mark turns into the ending of every sentence whether it fits or not.

#5 What a hunk of junk.
If you have ever owned a Toyota you know they tend to get recalled a lot. And when I say a lot, I do mean an absurd amount of times. You would think that one of the leading car manufacturers in the world would make sure they are using quality parts but noooooo.

#6 Cursive writing is a lost art form.
Everyone can remember being taught how to write in cursive while you were in school. Sadly, by the time we reach adulthood we have largely discarded that knowledge. The only proof that we ever knew how to write in cursive is in the form of our signature.

#7 It's lonely at the top.
I'm not sure this entry is entirely correct but it's still pretty funny.

#8 Why is coffee so damn expensive?
I have yet to have a barista explain to me effectively why a damn cup of coffee should ever cost more than a buck or two. Lattes are some of the worst offenders. It just doesn't make sense.

#9 They've got a point.
Okay, quick question. When is the last time you saw someone wearing yoga pants, actually doing yoga? I can answer that for you. Unless you're in a yoga class you haven't! It's madness.

#10 It's not really a limit.
Speed limits are nothing more than suggestions on how fast you should go while driving. If you're going under that suggestion you will generally get flipped off a few times by someone who desperately wants to go above that suggestion.
