A comment on SCP-055.

For all the unsettling or violent or dangerous SCPs on the wiki, my favourite still remains SCP-348. I teared up a little the first time I read this:

http://www.scpwiki.com/scp-348

It's a ceramic bowl with "thinking of you" written in Chinese on the side. When a person with a mild sickness like a runny nose or a cough is nearby, it fills with soup. People who eat this soup say it's comforting & reminds them of their parents' cooking. Once eaten, a message will materialize in the inside of the soup bowl in the language most familiar to the person eating from it.

I won't spoil the rest.

Side note: the closest game to capture the feeling of reading the SCP wiki is Control. If you enjoy reading the SCP wiki, you definitely owe it to yourself to play Control.

My favorite non-horror SCP is SCP-4239. It kinda requires knowing a little background on the Foundation and some of the Groups of Interest to understand, but overall its pretty great.
