how about “Wikipedia Binge Muffin?”

This morning I saw a little sticker on a lamp post that said “Generalized Other,” and I assumed it was a band name and I thought was pretty great if it was.

Later, while helplessly binge Wikipedia-ing on articles on sleep, I realized that this is a treasure trove of bad shoegazer, post-emo, or muffin core* band names. Consider:

And my favorite, and what I’m going to name my nascent Rock Band-inspired doom metal group,

What I really need now is a good name for binge Wikipedia-ing. I checked Wikipedia but couldn’t find an article on it.

* I only saw “muffin core” used as a genre once, and it doesn’t yet have a page in Wikipedia. I mostly include it because it’s kind of an awesome, ridiculous name. That said, the urban dictionary does suggest it’s an alternative to “cupcake core”, which is a euphemism for something less printable here, and that “muffin” is “one of the greatest words on the planet.” They kinda got a point, I guess.
