I was thinking about posting a thread asking what your favorite non-Benz-related sites were, when it occurred to me to do a forum search. Sure enough, someone had the bright idea sooner than I did.
Nice ones:
http://www.blogdex.net/ -- if you like blogs, this site tracks the most frequently-encountered/contagious stories being propagated throughout blogs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_events -- I'm starting to enjoy this site as a relatively unbiased source of information about current events.
everything2.com is fun for aimless link-hopping of fairly unmoderated content. I linked to a particular story you might like to start with.
And MedMech,
somethingawful.com is more my style than your fark.com
Anyone else?
