So it kills her appendix, spleen and what else? I'm pretty sure bad attitude isn't an organ. '''[[User:Davidy22|{{Color|purple|David}}y²²]]'''[[User talk:Davidy22|<tt>[talk]</tt>]] 09:14, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

They need to get on a bus just to access a computer? That's a pretty awful school. '''[[User:Davidy22|{{Color|#707|David}}y²²]]'''[[User talk:Davidy22|<tt>[talk]</tt>]] 01:38, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

I thought the joke was that the bus drove past all sorts of usual things (gears, rocket, single-called organism, Saturn, Feynman Diagram - ok, that last one isn't usual for MSB, but perhaps xkcd), but they couldn't find any batteries that day, so Wikipedia comes to the rescue. -j [[Special:Contributions/98.109.252.55|98.109.252.55]] 19:01, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
: My headcanon is that they looked at Wikipedia to figure out where to drive ''next'' for hands-on experience. I think usually Liz does that, but I can't see her anywhere in the comic... maybe she wasn't available that day? --[[Special:Contributions/172.68.246.206|172.68.246.206]] 18:53, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Incidentally, much of the demise of Encarta was blamed on Wikipedia. --[[User:Quicksilver|Quicksilver]] ([[User talk:Quicksilver|talk]]) 20:09, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

What about Dorothy Anne (with the pigtails)? DA was my second favorite. After Arnold's (not shown) "Why does this always happen to me" monologues, her "According to my re''search''..." (always with some big book in her lap) was very entertaining indeed. Also, has it really been 20-some years? Anonymous 07:24, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
: ''None'' of the children are particularly identified in the transcript, and neither she nor Ralphie (also seen) did anything of note in the comic. I suppose if the consensus is that they might be mentioned anyway (with "Girl" replaced with "Wanda"), then... sure, but if that were the case, it's likely that it would have been changed since.

Another reason for the use of Wikipedia may be due to the fact that battery acid is, as the name implies, an acid, and the bus likely wouldn't be able to travel through it. Though it's doubtful that this was the main joke, this could still be a sub-reason.
