While I ponder more entries on the stupendousness of Grant Lee Buffalo/Phillips, I'm going to begin a new series on the most random websites you've never heard of. These will be those nooks of the www that capture the very strangest and most idiosyncratic aspects of our nature, culture or whatnot. (Although, strangely, I find that they usually strike some very common chord in us, or else we'd never find them or pronounce them "odd".) These are the sort of endeavors that we all file under "Too Much Time on their Hands", though we routinely enjoy visiting the sites. High-profile examples include Engrish.com and Jumptheshark.com.
Today's TMTOTH site is: oldmencrying.com
I can't figure out if this is supposed to be a joke or not. But it's really strange, and kind of made me feel dirty, as if I'd gotten a glimpse of some strange fetish.

2) i heart the engrish site, which has just negatively impacted my already perilously low productivity.
find erin's blog yet?
Posted by: natalie at April 5, 2004 04:43 PMThat engrish site is even funnier if you work with the Japanese every day. I see good stuff all the time, though the one entry i sent in never got published.
erin's blog is http://blogontheweb.com/Erin/
she's got some great recipes on there.
1) what a letdown. i thought for a half second that you were being serious about her blog.
2) i have a quick topics page with recipes. don't be hatin'.
3) this is my new favorite blog: "do you think ross and rachel will finally get married?" gee, i hope so.
4) who would spend all the money it would take to make bailey's, when you could just buy a bottle of bailey's?
i'm done.
