Before proceeding further, I feel it's only sporting to say right now: Do not click on any of these links if you don't have an entire day (or more) to waste.
Cracked is like
TVTropes in terms of absolutely fascinating time-sucking. That said, it's also apparently a gigantic playground of muse-inspiring internet articles (in list format!).
Favorite ones so far:
10 Foreign Words That the English Language Needs.
9 Devastating Insults From Around The World. (I know "Thicker than shit and half as useful" will be showing up as a Buck-ism at some point in a fic for sure)
6 Insane Discoveries Science Can't Explain.
5 Pimpingest Historical Figures (I'm particularly fond of the catchphrases and am now fighting an urge to hunt down more quotes by Bonaparte.)
6 Biggest Badasses Who Lived as the Opposite Sex.
5 Most Badass Presidents of All Time. (Particularly fond of this one since my top two Presidents -- Teddy Roosevelt and Andrew Jackson -- made their list. Yes I have favorite Presidents. Doesn't everybody?)
6 Terrifying Ways Crows Are Way Smarter Than You Think. (Or: Josiah may be utterly justified in his fear of crows. Because, dude. Crows? Freakin' terrifying.)
