WikiHow has some interesting articles, but this one piqued my curiosity. It's called "How to Think for Yourself." Since anyone has the power to edit wikiHow, I guess I'll never know who came up with this particular stroke of genius.
The article has a few good ideas, but that's not the point. Call me old-fashioned if you like, but I always thought that thinking for yourself involved, you know, thinking for yourself. This article has achieved an astonishing level of irony here. "How to Think for Yourself" might have the capacity to teach someone just that, but if you read it with the intent to learn, you've already bypassed the purpose of the article's existence. That's just lazy. In fact, if you can't figure out how to think for yourself on your own and you require the aid of (let's not forget this article's origin) THE INTERNET to do so, you'll likely find that the article has too many words in it. Go listen to "Womanizer" while you wait for someone to read the page to you on Youtube.

Hey Ryan! "How to think for yourself" is like going to the book store and asking the clerk to show you where the "Self Help" section is.
ps- I like turtles too!
