All roads lead to philosophy, as this Wikipedia game proves

I'm feeling a little sheepish because I spent a decade in higher education studying philosophy and have also spent a lot of time online over the years, and yet I had never heard of the philosophy game, or more aptly, the Wikipedia philosophy phenomenon. I'll let the Wiki page explain it:

"The Wikipedia philosophy phenomenon, sometimes called the 'Philosophy Game', is the tendency that English Wikipedia articles' first hyperlink, when clicked in a chain, will end in a loop at the article 'Philosophy'."

In other words, go to any Wikipedia article, click the first link, rinse and repeat, and you'll end up at the article for Philosophy. Of course, you can continue from there, but you'll just end up taking a detour through language, communication, meaning, and so on, and then—you guessed it—looping right back to the philosophy page.
