This site kicks ass, plain and simple. Most people think of it as just a bunch of sick pictures of corpses, but this is a very small-minded view. It does have those, and plenty of them, but it has tons of other stuff too and the gorey pictures is really just a small part of the site.
I think the best thing about it is its Library feature. It’s like an encyclopedia of common shit (sex, politics, entertainment and the like) but with a humorous and sarcastic spin on everything. It also has an archive of celebrity mugshots, and an awesome “Biographies” section which covers tons of celebrities and historical figures.
Everyone should check out Rotten.com. Be warned, it’s not for everyone. It does have gory pictures, but they don’t come up on the main site unless you click on their links. Mainly there’s lots of swearing and sexual content, so it’s not really work-safe unless you’re looking at the Library section. It is a great site.
I agree. I’ve found lots of stuff on the site that’s informative and amusing, despite the gore. The analysis of Kim Jong Il’s leadership, for example, is really well done.
There are quite a few articles that don’t seem to be done or need construction. It’s kind of disapointing when you’re expecting a highly entertaining article and barely see a Timeline.
