These two are on par with People of Walmart.  I always get a kick out of these.

Also, my favorite videos on YouTube are ones where people get owned.  Example:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DyzcS3V … re=related

I had to chime in again.  I don't know a) how I forgot to include this with my previous post and b) how a bunch of other computer enthusiasts also forgot to include.  If you haven't seen this site before, I hope you enjoy.

useful, but not exactly our kind of "free"

edit, scrap that. i just compared it with a trace feature using potrace in inkscape... no competition.  open-source wins hands down.

a slight understatement,
some choice quotes
The very first paragraph:

Like most things that are worth owning, Computers are an American invention. Look at any modern computer and you will see that the whole thing is the product of American brilliance.

On linux:

It’s a computer program that was initially developed in Finland as a means of circumventing valuable copyrights and patents owned by an American company called SCO Group.

on the user demographic

And guess what software Osama Bin Laden uses on his laptop?

If you guessed it was Linux you would be 100% right. Osama uses Linux because he knows designed to counterfit DVDs, curcumventing the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, and defraud companies like Disney.sic

i particularly like the "gods hit list" section

Charles Darwin (God Won)

Shelley the Republican frightens me.  That website wouldn't be popular if there weren't a lot of other jingoists that agreed with her. sad I've seen other articles on her site, and I'm sure she deeply believes in everything she publishes. roll But what do I know?  I'm one of those "liberal liars". lol

God’s music hitlist : God hates people that listen to the bands below because they harm America!

Any and All American Idols

EDIT
@pvsage you mean one of those commie, marxist, paedophilic, satan worshipping, muzlim (sic), liberal liars.

It's hard to find something if you don't know what you're looking for.
