"It's not news, it's FARK.com."
"Everybody Panic."
And, for the Fark Cliche trifecta, "Today's (something) brought to you by (someplace)."
Drew Curtis' FARK.com provides a continuous stream of humorous, interesting, and disturbing links introduced with user submitted headlines. Some of the headlines are cryptic, some are a concise summary of what the link contains, and all are entertaining. The site is divided into broad categories like "politics" & "geek", but I've rarely used any but the main "not news" tab.
The headlines are comprised of 4 parts. First, there is a link directly to the source, handily visually announcing where the article originated. Next is the tag; each headline is tagged to denote what category they fall in to. These tags include "asinine", "weird", "ironic" and my personal favorite "Florida". Then comes the headline. To the right of each headline there is a forum where some people comment on the linked article, or whatever.
Before I used RSS and Google desktop, I used Drew Curtis' FARK.com to help feed my craving for knowledge. Now they are part of my RSS feeds. It is one of, if not the, the greatest source for not news on all the internet.
