u/powderhound522 25d ago

Not sure about that, but it’s definitely a reference to things that happened in real life 😢

Baby formula marketing (1970s–present))

My personal favorite Wikipedia joke is in the article "List of Cetaceans"

Where if they don't have a picture of the specific Cetacean they'll write "cetacean needed"

A play of "Citation needed"

This is actually the last cetacean that doesn't have a picture so this joke might be over soon

u/ahmed0112 25d ago

There's very little data about it so I think they went with the next best thing

u/RouteAverage3112 25d ago

So your telling me there's also no map of the indian ocean or the Southern part of the Pacific?

u/ahmed0112 25d ago

They don't know which parts of the oceans it lives in, just that they live around there
