Default The Cool Stuff Thread Revived

The old one was prematurely gassed, as I unknowingly had illegal content in there. The content was removed before the thread was deleted, so the thread gets a resuscitation [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]. I've even added a few more links.

I was thinking that since there are so many different types of people that post at SSNL, that together we probably know a ton of sweet internet sites. Post cool sites that you know of with a brief description. Hopefully AJ et. al don't mind this.

Humor
www.collegehumor.com
I imagine this is no secret (except maybe to the old timers). But there are tons of funny things.

www.gorillamask.net
Same format as most of these comedy sites.

www.entensity.net

Miscellany
forums.somethingawful.com
If you're not a member, join. It is the largest internet forum, period. You can find anything from computer tech help, to a Something Awful sales community. There are tons of funny threads, and plent more useful ones.

www.sherdog.com
For those MMA fans

www.erowid.org
For all those curious crackheads that want reliable info on their drugs.

Literary
In case you need to write a paper, expand your mind, or just sound smart!

www.theotherpages.org
Massive categorized database of quotes and poetry without the adds.

www.bartleby.com
It has classic literature, as well as useful literary references (quotations, encyclopedias, etc.).

No prob, I hope you contribute some of your computer/software knowledge to this. (Like that cache of my post, that was pretty sweet).

That was easy. I just did a million backspaces until I got there. (ALT-Left Arrow) It works becasue the ALT-LeftArrow doesn't actually re-browse to the site in question. It just redisplays the content of that page, which is cached in the browser's memory.

Sometimes this doesn't work, but on 2p2 it usually does. Don't close the browser window tho. When the window goes away, so does the cache.

SongMeanings - Meanings of songs

Dictionary.com - Dictionary

New York Times - New York Times

All this thread has done is reminded me that there isn't really much cool stuff on the interweb.

Metacritic. The best site I've seen for reviews of music, movies, TV shows, and books.

good thread. particularly like erowid and all the crazy LSD info. I think if you dig around enough you can find a video clip of UK soldiers who were testing LSD giggling around a tree [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

some of my favourites

http://www.khepler.net
http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net search for the english stuff or learn Spanish
