I call on the Loungers--fun websites at which you waste valuable time?
Edited on Fri Feb-10-06 06:48 AM by BlueIris
I feel that my current list of favorite entertainment web pages, message boards and Internet miscellany is kinda limited. So, tell me where you hang out. Some of my areas of interest when it comes to online browsing include sites that focus on celebrity gossip, witty-ish reviews of recently released books, linguistic history, actual history, (mainly 1800 to present) trivia and all things metaphysical. But feel free to share about the places you go when you just have nothing better to do.

It's scambaiters who do all kinds of wicked things to those Nigerian 419 scam crooks.

This is also another one of my favorites. You gotta go there just to see the pix.

16. Hmmm...I'm disappointed to hear that...
It sent me right to Google, and I found these:

http://www.jewishworldreview.com/0405/lileks041405.php3

http://www.newhousenews.com/archive/lileks052505.html

It certainly doesn't sound as if he likes Democrats very much.

It's pretty out there, but it's my favorite online (slightly syndicated) strip.
