It's been so long since I've had the internet at home that I seem to have forgotten how to surf.

Anyone care to recommend a few sites that I can blow some time on?

I would be most grateful.

Fark (its a little risque to link at times, but always "work safe" (though not always what's linked from it)). Mostly its just hilarious stories from around the internet.

Looks like someone just Ctrl C and P'd their Favorites list for me. [Smile]

Posted by fugu13 (Member # 2859) on :

No, just one folder.

Most of my favorites many people would find rather boring, here's an excerpt:

If you're a child of the 80's or just want to see the commercial weirdness of that era, check out

www.madowl.com rings a bell.

I haven't figured out which one though.

Posted by ChaosTheory (Member # 7069) on :

www.fark.com

It's great.

goats.com
Goats is a pretty funny webcomic, but its particular sense of humor may take getting used to. Also, it runs on a semi continuous story arc, so it may be hard to follow initially. Very funny, though

collegehumor.com
Mostly good for the links off the front page. The site is work safe, but many of the links aren't.

addictinggames.com
Tons of free internet games. Always a good way to waste time. I would suggest giving curveball a try, it's a lot of fun.

ebaumsworld
Has an extremely great video collection. Not really worth it unless you have high speed internet, but if you do I would reccomend it.

Wait, what?

There are other sites than Hatrack? Seriously?

Wow. I gotta get out more.

Fugu, that site you linked to me last night is just hilarious!

When I'm not on hatrack, I'm usually on a robotics forum, Chief Delphi. It probably won't be of interest to you if you're not involved in FIRST, however.

Dang fugu, I thought *I* was a webcomic junkie!

Posted by fugu13 (Member # 2859) on :

They just accumulate as I keep finding more . . .

Posted by The Pixiest (Member # 1863) on :

Concidering the large overlap of comics you read with the ones I read I'm going to have to go down your list and pick up the gaps =) Though I'm going to have to finish reading The archives to Chopping Block, Clan of the Cats and The Wotch before I add anything else.

Val, it's really good to see you around again. I missed you. [Kiss]
