h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

There have only been a few occasions when I found something screwy with a Wikipedia article, but this is the worst I've ever seen. Here's a few excerpts from an article about pigs:

"Pigs are a space species from planet Zork who were frozen in carbonite by Sour Patch Kids along with Han Solo and Chuckie Cheese. They came here on the sacred vessels The Ninja, the Pina-Colada, the Slave I, and the Heidy-Ho III. Their diet consists of bats, rythm gutarists, a yellow substance called "cheez" and, of course, Al Gore."

"Pigs mainly spend their free time throwing rolls at people, robbing 7-11s, rolling in steak sauce, and voting for Sanjaya. Most pigs live in their mother's basements and listening to Metallica backwards and playing dungeons and dragons."

"See Also: Nose picking, The Doors, Mr. T, and, of course, Al Gore."

I've also wondered why people choose to vandalise the articles they do. At least this wasn't just random drivel. Drivel, yes, but not random.

TRiG.
