It has been only three days since Huckapoo finally earned themselves a Wikipedia entry, and already there's trouble brewing. First, there was a short-lived coup when, for less than a minute, the entry was altered to read: "The world's shittiest girl group. It consists of alter egos such as Twiggy Stardom (the prep) Pj Bardot (the pathetic white urban kid who listens to rap music) Joey Thunders (the punk) Angel Sparks (the punk also)." I mean, duh, everyone knows Angel is a biker chick.

Now there's a debate over whether Twiggy deserves a separate entry of her own. Well, not so much a debate as a chorus of disapproval.

member of a band that haven't released an album - and don't look like they will.

not notable member of a not notable band. Since when do bands have cheerleaders anyway?

Pointless

Things aren't looking good for the Twigster. What kind of crazy world is this where the nerds get to judge the cheerleader?

In case you're wondering, I have nothing to do with this entry. I didn't write it, I haven't touched it, I haven't commented on it.

The only thing I did was request that someone else create it, only because I wanted to see what we'd get. And I filed that request only after seeing that someone had created a link to the not-yet existent Huckapoo page on the entry for, well, me.

Yeah, I have a Wikipedia entry, and I really, really promise you that I have nothing to do with that either. You can probably tell from reading it: basically it reduces my entire existence to stuff that I've written about on this blog. I can't tell you how depressing that is. I've made only two small changes to it since it went up, fixing a couple of dates.

Fun fact: I looked up my name after Kevin alerted me that there was an entry for him, and that according to the Wikans, his co-author on the book My First Presidentiary is someone you might not expect.
