I stole this from another forum, basically if you pick any subject on Wikipedia and keep clicking on the first link that isn't in italics or in backets you'll always end up in philosophy.

Black metal to modern philosophy in 7 (black metal->extreme metal->umbrella term->subset->mathematics->quantity->property->modern philosophy)

Gluon in 13 (gluon->elementary particle->particle physics->physics->natural science->science->knowledge->facts->information->sequence->mathematics->quantity->property->modern philosophy)

Black metal is clearly superior to science, the internet, pizza, and astrology.
