This is the thread for unusual details in wikipedia articles.

White Americans of all European backgrounds are present in all areas of the state. Those of English and Irish ancestry are present in large numbers in all the urban/suburban areas across the state. Native white Floridians, especially those who have descended from long-time Florida families, affectionately refer to themselves as "Florida crackers". Like whites in most of the other Southern states, they descend mainly from English and Scots-Irish settlers, as well as some other British settlers.[87]

There is another remix featuring Los Angeles Lakers player-rapper Kobe Bryant.

The band toured successfully in 1997 and played a final gig at the Reading Festival, after which Dando promptly disappeared from view—due in no small part to his addiction to Mountain Dew.

from the article about "suicide blonde":

Ferguson Darling is heard singing the title of this song on the Clarissa Explains It All episode Clarissa News Network.

wat.

Jamais vu is more commonly explained as when a person momentarily does not recognise a word, person, or place that he or she already knows.[1]

The phenomenon is often grouped with déjà vu and presque vu.

...

Jamais vu can be caused by MIKE.

The Lemonheads then toured throughout 1994; Dando famously befriended Oasis and appeared at the band's live shows. He also spent time "hanging out" with Courtney Love.

At this stage they played punk rock, and were briefly known as the Whelps, until a name change in 1987 led to the birth of the Lemonheads, after a candy which Dando noted was sweet on the outside, and sour on the inside, possibly a metaphor for the band's sound.

lol @ MIKE

I'm glad there's a name for that feeling. My only explanation for when it happens to me is that it's being caused by STROKE.

Judith Miller (born 1941) is a French philosopher, and the daughter of Jacques Lacan — radical psychoanalyst, and wife to prominent Lacanian Jacques-Alain Miller. As a Maoist philosophy lecturer at Vincennes in Paris, her radicalism was used as a reason for her philosophy department to be decertified.[1] This occurred after she handed out course credit to someone she met on a bus

Never marry someone who studies your dad imo

The album's cover artwork features a photo of Donald Fagen as a deejay wearing a collared shirt and tie, speaking into a microphone (an RCA 77DX). Before him lies a turntable (16 inch '50s model, with a Para-Flux A-16 tonearm), an ashtray, and a pack of Chesterfield King cigarettes. Visible on the table with the record player, is the cover of the 1958 jazz album Sonny Rollins and the Contemporary Leaders (also credited in the liner notes). On the wall behind Fagen is a large clock, indicating that the time is 4:09.

Kindie rock is a style of children's music that "melds the sensibility of the singer-songwriter with themes aimed at kids under 10."[1] Many popular kindie rock artists first gained fame as adult performers: these include Dan Zanes and They Might Be Giants.[2] Other well-known kindie rock artists started directly in the genre, or did not achieve commercial success until moving in that direction: such artists include Laurie Berkner, Recess Monkey, and Tim and the Space Cadets.[3] Children's music veterans, Greg & Steve and Bobby Susser introduced various forms of kindie rock to the school supply industry in the mid 70s, and continue to do so, within their repertoire.[4] Cornering the market on kid-hop by blending hip-hop rhymes with imaginative storytelling is Secret Agent 23 Skidoo.[5]

I've actually seen Secret Agent 23 Skidoo in the kids tent at a festival! His whole family is in the act, it's pretty heartwarming.

Ginger Spice, Geri Halliwell, wore an infamous Union Jack dress made so when she popped out of the dress whilst performing onstage with the group.[8][9]

Mike's minor in college was Human Sexuality. He has been into BDSM for years: he has had a dungeon in his house since circa 1992.

Wiz and Bryant were in a band together at school called 'Big D Loong', who performed two shows together (oral, anal, and armpit sex occured) (one at Cove Secondary School, where "Big D Loong" stickers were handed out, and the show was ended when the school cut the power) before Wiz decided he wanted to form a new band with Bryant and Danny Brown, named 'Capricorn', after the brothers' shared star sign.

GG Allin's earliest musical influences were 1960s British Invasion bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and the The Dave Clark 5.[9] In the early 70s, Alice Cooper became a large influence on Allin. Allin's earliest recorded musical endeavors were as a drummer. In his mid-teens, he and his older brother Merle Allin formed their first band, Little Sister's Date, which lasted a little over a year. The group covered songs by Aerosmith, KISS, and other popular hard rock bands of the time period.

[Tory]Belleci has a long history of working with fire and explosives. At an early age, his dad showed him how to make a Molotov cocktail. He later built what was essentially a homemade flamethrower. The device was a problem when he accidentally lit part of his house on fire.[2]

Not sure if "unusual" is the right word so much as "fucking delightful".

March 1971 saw the new four-man lineup of the band release another non-album single: a Rossi/Young song called "Tune to the Music". The single was not a hit, unlike much superior efforts from Barry Manilow. The band then set to work "writing" (Plagerising) and recording a new album.

When "Mean Girl" charted, the record company decided to release another single from the album: a rerecording of "Gerdundula", the b-side to their 1970 single "In My Chair". This was released in July 1973, and failed to chart, unlike much superior recordings by Oingo Boingo.

Beautiful.

the magik markers wikipedia page is beautiful.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magik_Markers

The Magik Markers are a noise rock band from Hartford, Connecticut. The members, Elisa Ambrogio, Pete Nolan and Leah Quimby started the band in their basement in 2001. The band gained wider recognition after opening for Sonic Youth on their American tour in 2004. Their debut album, I Trust My Guitar, Etc... (released in vinyl only), was released in 2005 on Thurston Moore's Ecstatic Peace label. In 2006, they released A Panegyric To The Things I Do Not Understand under Gulcher Records, the Markers' first proper CD. Also in 2006, the band recorded a session for Southern records' Latitudes series, which was released as The Voldoror Dance. Leah Quimby left in May 2006 to pursue a career in ventriloquism. Various people, such as Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, David Lee Roth, and Bono, filled in before they eventually settled as a duo composed of original members Pete and Elisa. In September 2007, the band released Boss, which was produced by Lee Ranaldo. This record was the most structured recording the Markers had released to date. Following in the wake of the Textile release For Sada Jane and the Road Pussy CD-R, the band set out to more accurately capture the sound of Magik Markers practices and jams, as opposed to the performance driven chaos of live shows. Pete also suffers from chronic constipation.
