Fun Stuff to do on the Internet

All right, so now that school is out for the summer in most places, we all have a lot more time to do stuff, which includes surfing the internet. So, I'm going to collect a collection (well obviously ) of cool timewasters/fun stuff to do on the internet.
1. Chiefdelphi (Just had to get that out of the way)
2. Politopia
3. Wheres George?
Add more here, my mind is not working very well at the moment.

Heh. I've done a lot of those just for fun. It's interesting to view Google in the eyes of a latino pig *not ment to offend people, ment to make fun of the pig latin "language"*

I read Penny Arcade religiously.
If you're a gamer, and like humor... they rock.

Again, go there at your own risk. Some of their humor isn't for elementary school kids.

Re: Fun Stuff to do on the Internet

Check out google for sure, especially in its directory for more programming tutorials and other 'stuff'.
http://www.shockwave.com has a whole lot of fun games to play.
http://www.nintendo.co.jp is the Japanese Nintendo site. Go there if you are a Nintendo fan and want an eye into the future of American Nintendo Games. (You don't need to know Japanese to understand the site, trust me.)

Re: Fun Stuff to do on the Internet

I'm particularly fond of UZC: The Unofficial Zeo Comic. One of the folks at the Pokemon message board I frequent (and mod) does it with characters loosely based off of folks there. I'm a snake. http://www.geocities.com/kyattsuai7 (Rating: PG, PG-13 on a bad day. Not a UZC excepted.)

Then there's my bro's comic site, www.itbcomics.com (Rating: G, sometimes PG for comic violence).

And then there's my lowly site, www.billfredindustries.com (Rating: NC-17 for too much pent-up rage vented. Kidding...PG.)

Re: Fun Stuff to do on the Internet

www.redvsblue.com -- if you haven't seen it, you should! It's absolutely hilarious. Not really a time-waster, as there's only one episode a week, but it's well worth a look, believe me.

Create a nation, rule it. Fashion everything after your own political ideals. Be kind and benevolent to the people, or torture them. It's all up to you.
