www.zombo.com that is all.

It's been up for years and I never got the point of it.

Of course, someone's already catalogued a whole load of these, including this.

Now you can feel like the protagonist in Albert Camus' story 'Sisyphus'  ;D

How do you actually do that one? It seems to be just a static image for me.

Though also on that list is Alter Ego, which is surprisingly addictive. I remember playing it years ago, now... http://www.playalterego.com/alterego

I had to puzzle over it at first, almost gave up on it as a static page. You have to pick up one speck of sand at the far left and drop it on the right. One grain of sand at a time.

I forgot where I read about it, but zombo.com is supposed to be a site that looks like it's still loading its webpage.  However, that webpage is complete.

Also, Boohbah zone is supposed to be a site for pre-schoolers, but I have my doubts.

I don't know, it has that whoever made this must have been on drugs vibe that is suprisingly common for pre-school childrens TV.

Which makes sense, because with some of those shows, the only reason any self-respecting adult would watch them is if they were stoned off their ass.

I thought Boohbah sounded strangely familiar, so I googled and it actually is a kids tv show.

I know that when the Boohbah show was on, some people I know wouldn't let their kids watch it because they simply couldn't find any true educational value from it.  To them, it was really weird even though supposedly it was supposed to have a loose Sci-Fi element to it.

And...another one page wonder of weirdness. Things pop up when you put your cursor on the faces.

If anyone likes surprises or know someone who does, the Somethingstore is there to help you out for $10 USD, and yes, they ship internationally. However, shipping fees may vary for international orders.

This one deserves mention. Lots of trolls and poes baiting religious people, some good laughs for dull nights.

Heh, the first result is an intentional mangling of the phrase "Christians, do you believe the Bible is the Word of God?"

Funny thing is, a lot of my problems when I actually was a Christian was that people made an idol out of the Bible, elevating it to be equal or GREATER than God himself.  To the point where they seemed to believe (even if they would refuse to say as such) that the Bible was actually God.

Now, to me, that seems a lot more heretical than believing that God imbues a wafer and a cup of wine with his essence or something like that (you can tell I was raised evangelical because of this statement alone) but whatever.  Evangelical Fundies have VERY weird priorities, often spending more effort on explaining what other Christians are doing wrong than solving real problems like... how to drop toast without it landing butter-side down.

This has been a Magus Silveresti rant.

We found two ends to the internet, and there is a website left intentionally blank.

That one is so subtly adoreable.
