Have we not got a game on the go? Let's rectify that.

if you like lamebook, i recommend http://www.fmylife.com

For cartoons and webcomics, i'm immensely fond of http://www.nedroid.com and saturday morning breakfast cereal http://www.smbc-comics.com, and I occasionally find XKCD http://www.xkcd.com amusing, even though most of the time I don't know enough about computers for it to be funny.

Also, read http://www.theonion.com . I have found it a useful way to dismiss huge sections of society. Do you read the onion? no? then we're not friends. Also, their sister site the AV clubshttp://www.avclub.com has some really good movie reviews, and a very funny column called my year of flops, where a critic called nathan rabin watched two terrible movies a week. it's hit and miss, but the one on the wicker man is genius.

Perfectly safe Ian, nothing rude, just a series of supposed emails, very funny whether they're real or not.

Build a website for your comedy night should be a fun time very easy to do

The Link To A Site About '"Erotic' Fiction Based On Jurassic Park wrote:
SHORT STORY BY ALEX COX"

"This is a UNIX system! I KNOW THIS." proclaimed Lex Murphy, staring at the 3D operating system flying before her on screen.

"No it bloody isn't," screamed Jeff Goldblum, slapping her in her smug little face. "It's clearly IRIX! Which, while a UNIX derivative, isn't actually UNIX." Lex Murphy whimpered a little so Goldblum punched her out of the chair with a sneer. He put the boots into the now unconscious child and removed a few of her worthless little teeth. "Fucking children," he sighed.

Peering into the whizzy 3D murk, Goldblum stopped. His Jewish eyes couldn't believe it. Was that... no... He grabbed for the mouse and clicked around, soon discovering that yes, indeed, it was a picture of a dinosaur penetrating a giraffe while a lion watched.

"Wow." said Jeff, before masturbating his gigantic circumcised member until he, er, exploded with, um, dinosaurial velocity. Or something.

Which could almost be as weird as this...............

Mike: That site has become one of my favourites. I thought at first that he was a bit of a tool, but after having read some of the others, if they're true, I don't really blame him.

This one made me laugh: http://27bslash6.com/p2p2.html
