Bread dildos and other NSFW topics in this very special Wiki Wormhole

This week’s entry: Quick hits
What it’s about: Lots of things! Over the years, we’ve come across Wikipedia articles that fascinated or amused to some degree, but were too short to write a full column about. So for the next few weeks, we’re going to shake up the format and move through our 6,198,555-part series a bit faster by tackling multiple subjects in brief.

Mozart and scatology: Sure, Wolfgang Amadeus is one of the most brilliant and admired composers of all time. But he’s considered a genius by 10-year-old boys everywhere not for his music, but for his devotion to poop jokes, which was significant enough to merit a separate page on Wikipedia. The page quotes a letter to his cousin that includes this poem (which rhymes in the original German):
