The Interesting Internet Crap Thread - Page 260

***Fenris*** · 06-24-2010, 01:07 AM

Thread for links to things that are funny/interesting. These can be links to the You Tubes or to Onion articles or to whatever all kind of thing happens to make you chuckle.

Please no:

- NSFW material

- Generally gross/weird crap

- Random links that aren't especially funny/interesting or have any discernable attempt at humor/fascination that you're posting for the thrill of slapping links to any random thing you scraped off the bottom of the internet.

ALSO

- Interesting or neat videos that may not be strictly funny but that you aren't looking to explicitly discuss or mock or whatever [i.e. it's not the focus of a whole topic] will fit in here just fine.

- a brief description that tells everyone what they're about to click on is appreciated

- in the general interests of promoting quality over quantity, no more than say, three links per post. Exceptions made if it is some kind of series that all goes together although if it's that huge of a series you'd probably do better to see if there's one index page or something for it that you can link.

- at least every third post has to have links! Tangential discussions about a particularly interesting one are still fine, just throw in some links for content too, and if your tangential discussion becomes longer than 10 posts or so you might want to consider starting a thread. Honestly though this one's not so much an enforced rule as a guideline.
