I know your loathe to admit it, but you DO look at other sites. In the self serving interest of broadening my already bloated array of 'net sites that I can currently waste a lot of time on, I ask you the question. Perhaps the links could be of some benefit for others here as well… either way. 😃 I submit [Boing Boing](http://boingboing.net/) as mine. ---

Fark and Cracked. Used to be also, Snopes and the Onion. I like to visit Mellophant and Giraffe Boards, but they have to get their traffic poppin’. I don’t post anywhere but here, really. ETA: Hey! Anyone remember The Best Website in the World? Maddox? I used to freakin’ love that site, but he stopped updating it. ---

Amazon. I spend a lot of money on Amazon just so they will keep their site on the web. Also lately I’ve been loving: [http://www.epicfail.com/](http://www.epicfail.com/) Edit: Yeah I’m bummed about Maddox too but since he wrote the book he’s pretty much stopped posting.

Other than the 'dope, I’m pretty lowbrow on the net. [http://www.doingitwrong.com/](http://www.doingitwrong.com/) is always fun although the new material has slowed down a bunch in the last few months. Also, [http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/](http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/) . Any time I start to feel unworthy or like I’m not living up to my potential, a few minutes there will make me realize I’m a king. ---
