Subject: Best Internet Sites...

Written By: John_Seminal on 07/08/03 at 06:56 p.m.

What are the funnest, best places to go on the web?

The only places I go are here, slashdot.com (tech news), javaranch.com (java programmers site), and yahoo.com (for fantasy sports).

Oh, I also read some on-line newspapers like the chicago sun-times and the new your times.

What websites does everyone else like?

Depends what you like really.

Personally i like - in no particular order: Elftor.com (politically incorrect, dodgy-humour-based webcomic - Not for those easily-offended);

Weebl (www.Weebl.jolt.co.uk), flash cartoon with odd, British, geeky humour;

Ginger Nation (www.tnt.34sp.com/gingernation/index.php), a 'Ginger Pride' site LOL;

www.songmeanings.net, i just like this site for the squabbling NOFX fans, pure comedy;

It's a Conspiracy Net(http://www.itsaconspiracy.net/index.html), 'the ramblings of a right-wing conspirator who is easily annoyed by the stupidity and hypocrisy of the left.' a Republican who writes some interesting pieces on all sorts of subjects - mostly politically-orientated. This is where i got a lot of the info about the questionable tactics of PETA and i'm not sure if it's still up but he had a link to a flash parody of the Real Slim Shady with Saddam;

www.petsorfood.com, a site where you can buy all sorts of animals (such as hamsters) either as food or as pets, interesting stuff;

www.guimp.com, 'the world`s smallest website'. Kind of interesting in a Japanesey kind of way;

www.superbad.com, odd but surprisingly large and confusing network of rabbit-warren-like, inter-connected little pages, kind of interesting;


flemcomics.com, a kind of black humour with quirky bits and lots of jokes about guns, prostitutes, lesbian terrariums and a mutant Jesus - you know the type - about the slightly life of some Goth who moves from California to live with his mate in Texas. So-so most of the way threw but with a few gems;

And a few political ones. :)

News:
BBC
Reuters

CIA World factbook
  Learn about those far-flung places you read about in the news.

Shopping:
Amazon.Com
 My main multimedia source.

David Brown Book Co.
  Great for finding more specialized history books and acadamia; journals, university press, et al.

Mere Entertainment:
TV Tome
  Look up your favorite past and/or present sitcom, gameshow, etc.

F'dCo.
  A guilty pleasure.  Read facts and rumors about, and revel in, the epidemic of layoffs and bankruptcies afflicting the dot-com world.  InternalMemos.Com is especially interesting.

Internet Movie Database
  The skinny on your favorite movies.  Loaded with information.

"?"

The Secular Web

Tsk! That T.V. Tome site doesn't even give a look-in to all-time classics like Stop-It and Tidy-Up or Button Moon.  :P  ;) It nearly redeems itself having a mention for Magic Roundabout. Hmm...but the 'series included witty commentary for the adults,' ? I didn't notice that, i thought it was just weird with storylines that were funny in that they never really went anywhere and didn't make much sense....hillarious when stoned.

Hm...4am, time for bed said Zebedee.  :P  ::)

  How rude and insensitive of me for not providing a link to a TV show database for my friends in the UK.

  You'd probably know better sites than me, but please allow this awkward-but-sincere gesture so I may redeem myself... :-KidsTV-UK

Speaking of fan fiction, isn't there a lot of fan fiction for Enterprise where Trip and Cpt. Archer have a gay relationship? I thought that was funny. A lot of the Star Trek fanfiction seems a bit dodgy in that area.

I liked that Black People Love Us site. Bit on the American side humour-wise, though. It could have been more offensive and therefore more funny. But i don't think it would have worked without the main people in it looking the way they did: you can't really find people who look like that over here.
