Damn you, Wikichain!

It happened again! I started on TVTropes with the entry for the "Alien" series and 3 1/2 hours later I end up on Wikipedia reading about the Voyager 1 and 2 space probes.
Not only did it steal a huge amount of time of my day, when I was finally able to break the chain and got up to do some mundane tasks like washing dishes and changing the bedsheets, I went into "philosophy mode", thinking about the endlessness of space, the distances in the solar system and how dumb people can be so much happier than intelligent ones.
Need to play video games now...

FA+

Just be happy you went into philosoper mode and not something frightening.
Though now I do wonder what that something frightening would be ^.^
Well, it's like philosopher mode but with something that'll drive you insane...Curiosity kills.
And it's a mass phenomenon (<- WARNING leads to tvtropes. Use at own risk!) :-D
