Top 3 favorite sites on the Internet

by J. Herman

Created on: December 20, 2011

This could be a review from a serious, literate and enlightened person. You know the type. The type who says, "I never watch television, especially reality TV." Then they strike a pose with their head in that haughty fashion. You know, the posture with their nose pointed towards the sky.

The type of person, when asked for their top 3 favorite sites on the Internet, will start listing the most useful sites they can think of. One of those useful sites usually includes Google or some other search engine because... well... search engines have become the standard way to navigate the web.

Well, thank you very much, Captain Obvious. Or to be more succinct - duh. Just to be clear this is not going to be one of those reviews. 

Come on. This is the same as the answers people always give when asked for the main reason they surf the net. But statistics show that the list of most popular sites usually have a porn site or two up in top ten. And no one ever mentions those.

This might lead you to the false impression that this review is going to list porn sites here. Nope. But the three favorite sites listed are considered 'guilty pleasures'. These are sites that are fun without necessarily requiring any redeeming features.

1. - I can has cheezburger

Take a picture. Caption it like someone using phonics, but in a funny way. Home of the LOL cats. You can submit your own pictures with funny sayings or add captions to already uploaded pictures. Too much of this site and your brain just might explode.

2. - The Bloggess

If you're looking for a dose of funny with snark and irreverence, this is the blog for you. If you find the f-word disturbing then you should take a pass. The posts that clinched it were the metal chicken and Copernicus the homicidal monkey.

3. - Cute Overload

Need some gooey cuddly feelings every day? Admit it. Everyone does. This is one site you can't pass up. What you have here are pictures of incredibly cute animals to give you your daily dose of 'Awww.' Yes, these are the people responsible for the 'squeal heard round the world.' Cute overload scours the net for the latest in cute imagery. But be afraid. Be very afraid. You could wind up with a cuteness addiction. So far, there isn't a twelve -step program to separate you from your cute overload.

Whew. Three fun websites to help you waste time. And not a single mention of a porn site. Now, doesn't that make you happy?
