I'm sure we've all come across things on the web that have been entertainingly strange or odd,and I thought it would be cool to share some of those things with each other; and what better place to do so than right here?

For example, have you ever Google'd the word "askew"? Try it. :) I laughed for over 5 minutes straight when I did.

Never seen that before, I am glad Google has a sense of humour.  ;D

DaveMorton

Oh, I'm VERY familiar with Google's sense of humour. Every year on April first, they've published some sort of "off the wall" article, meant as a prank, that described and/or outlined some outlandish idea or another. This page outlines the various pranks and "easter eggs" that Google has passed on to us over the years. :)

Doesn't do anything for me. I've read the post saying what it should do.

Snowy, which web browser are you using? It may make a difference.

{In the off chance that others can't see it, either, here's a screenshot of the page in Google Chrome}

I was with Snowy, didn't really get it in IE9 :scratch-head:, seen it in Chrome now  :LOL:

Nice to see a humorous side to the Internet God.

Sorry but my eyes immediately went to the words and definitions and saw nothing wrong, then after a little  :scratch-head:, I backed away a little and laughed at the "tilted screen" I was able to fix it by placing a few match packs under the edge of my monitor and now it's level once more!

Good one Dave!

DaveMorton

Thanks, Art, but I can't take the credit, as it was pointed out to me. I'm just spreading the smiles, so to speak. :)

This is one of the strangest things I've seen, a picture of Mutley with an odd beam of light, ok its probably some kind of reflection from his silver bowl but strange all the same. 



Freddy

Are you sure it's not a light-sabre ?  :D

Snowcrash

And a white one too. What kind of Jedi is that?
