Wiki'd: Two Faced

I was going to do a serious post about the world war because of the readings that i've been doing for my religion and film class but nah, seriousness is overrated.

Instead we're going to play "press the random article button on wikipedia until we get an article that isn't someone Justin doesn't know or a random country he didn't know existed, and then talk about whatever it makes him think of." It's unbelievable how many articles are on there that i have not even the slightest clue what they're referring to. Anyhow, after about 15 clicks just 2 minutes ago, i came upon the article:

"Two Faced"

Actually the first thing that i thought of was that villain in batman. You know the one. Twoface. He's got to faces, the one who has the coin flipping fetish and is about as generic caucasian as generic caucasian gets and then the other looks like the illegitimate child of Barney the Dinosaur and Freddy Cougar. Holy crap that guy used to scare me when i watched the batman movie back in the day. Now i don't mean to be incredibly inconsiderate and tactless but what the hell could have happened to the man such that very conveniently RUINED half (and only half) of his face, and bordering perfectly along the y-axis of head. Also, why the hell did it turn purple. And not like bruise purple, this guy's face looks like someone beat it with a Raptor's jersey. Before I am subjected to nerd-rage by those of you who may actually know what happened to him, I would just like to say that I actually have no idea what the story is but this is my best bet. As a young child, his family decided on a rainy afternoon to do something fun and adventurous so that he wouldn't become bored and once again fill time by deciding the fates of his neighbouring youngsters by flipping and coin and surprise-sacking those who flipped a "tails". The best idea that they could come up with was a visit to the soda factory. Unfortunately for his parents when they arrived there, young Twoface was not very amused by the tourguide's "fun facts" and decided to see if he could cop a free drink from the brewing vat. He didn't think twice about the fact that soda is so supersaturated with sugar that they have to superheat it to intense temperatures just to make water hold that much otherwise it would be rejected from the aqueous molecular structure like me from nearly every club that i try to get into. He slipped as he leaned forward, and SHAPOW. Purple disfigured face.

It now occurs to me that the article wasn't about Twoface the character but about the definition of the term. But oh well.
