Weirdest site you found on the internet - Bonus points if still online.

[Sperghetti]

I used to run across a ton of sites that were obviously for fetishes, but with no overtly sexual content. I remember one for people who enjoyed pretending to be handicapped, which included a fictional story about some woman who was thrilled to "accidentally" have both her hands amputated and replaced with a very specific set of hooks. I actually ran across the story again fairly recently, but for the life of me I can't find it right now.

I also remember a site that was entirely about men with long fingernails. That was definitely the most niche one I think I ever found.

There's also at least a few people out there who really have a thing for photos of women in coke bottle glasses.

Or how about Petticoat Pond, a site for grown men who like frilly skirts that’s quite obviously been online since the 90’s?

And of course, as somebody mentioned earlier, Roy Orbison in Clingfilm. (With bonus haikus!)

The Internet has ruined me. Fetishes like these used to surprise and baffle me, but now I barely react.

I remember seeing a very lengthy list of movies and TV where women hit men in the nuts.

Why even make a website for that when there's probably a tag for it on IMDB?

Ran into a walking dead Daryl Dixon Russian themed streaming/pirating site once.

uploadstars.com

Formerly known as Upload Society, this is a clone of Youtube perpetually frozen in the MySpace era. Their cranky founder used to push his own videos to the front page but I think he left some time ago.

I clicked on it for some reason and it seems it is dead.
Now it redirects to https://chillspot1.com/ which has a "opening january 2021" message. It only lacks a construction worker GIF to be honest.

Edit: From HTML meta tags

Brucebase. Not as weird as some of the other stuff in this thread, but I think it's worth mentioning. An unbelievably massive collection of information about Bruce Springsteen, including all the information they can find about every concert he's ever performed. According to the front page, they have over 13000 pages of information about this one dude. I don't know how anyone has this kinda time, but I can't help but be a little impressed by the dedication.

The fact it's Springsteen too, like damn. A boring ass fella, he looks nice though.

Way back in the early 2000s, I found this website called RealSkanky.com. It was a combination of porn, humor, and shock. It certainly lived up to its name!

It's not that weir, but I like it and think more people should check it out. Classic style. No JavaScript nonsense. Unix and Bell Labs software documentation site.

Weird wiki about audio stuff.

 

[BooneHelm]

squattheplanet.com

It's a forum basically for drifters that is still moderately active today. It's a pretty interesting to run through when bored. They have everything from Van threads to people offering a couch to crash on. They even have a section devoted to naming dangerous or terrible people in the community.

I've ended up on that site a couple of times by chance. The level of detail in some formats/processes is insane.

Great resource for the codec inclined.

Also, the wiki itself has updates past the 2007 mark. That date is probably the front-page itself.
