I mentioned this in one of my shows recently. Since I screwed up the plug and didn't name my favourite humour website, I thought I'd share it here.
http://www.uncyclopedia.org
It's basically a comedy version of wikipedia. As anyone can edit it, the writing quality is variable, to say the least. Click on "featured content" on the sidebar for the good stuff. I recommend:
http://www.uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Civil_War
http://www.uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Turing_Duck_Test
I didn't write those, but I did write http://www.uncyclopedia.org/wiki/UnBook ... d_20%C2%BE and many more.
There is a page on Countdown. It's not completely terrible. Meanwhile, the Carol Vorderman article has been deleted ten times, for being absolute rubbish.

Re: Uncyclopedia
Thanks for the link!
Liked your Andy Murray page, and this one: http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/UnNe ... _to_public
I can see myself wasting hours on this site.

Re: Uncyclopedia
I may regret reading this thread. Thanks Martin. You've introduced me to another website where I could well find myself buried for many hours.
Like the Andy Murray diary.

Re: Uncyclopedia
I get excited about Uncyclopedia every few months for a day, then the novelty wears off again. Today, I'm finding it very novel.

Re: Uncyclopedia
This happens rather a lot with Uncyclopedia (though at least my 'Here Be Dragons' page has been spared for the time being).Martin Bishop wrote:Meanwhile, the Carol Vorderman article has been deleted ten times, for being absolute rubbish.

Re: Uncyclopedia
I find it bland and boring, sorry.
If you cut a gandiseeg in half, do you get two gandiseegs or two halves of a gandiseeg?

I like the page on alliteration
Re: Uncyclopedia
An amusing article Martin. I think you've displayed great wit and intellect.
