My wiki-cliki was so great that I had a surprising 74 tabs open ... all of which originated at polyphasic sleep.

Me: "I know. I was reading about polymorphism and my wiki-cliking just got out of control."

Wiki-vention

When in a conversation with friends you check wikipedia for a fact on your smartphone and become so engrossed in unnecessary links (intering the wikipedian loop) related to the original query you withdraw completely from the conversation. So oblivious to your friend’s attempts to reengage you, they resort to sending a text to your phone as the only means to contact you directly and jog you out of your stupor.
AKA the smartphone intervention when IMDB or other sites cause the same withdrawl from actual human social interaction.

Chuck "It's been 10 min since he checked Wikipedia and he hasn't spoken"
Teddy "Looks like he's stuck in a wikipedian loop"
Chuck "I'll text him, it's time for his Wiki-vention"
