The idea behind this thread is for people to post any links to websites that you or other people may find interesting. Link dumps are growing in popularity all over the web , and I figured that the unique sense of humor the PC has might produce some interesting links.

I'll get the ball rolling.

Airport weddings ftw??? How odd.

Why is it that when I read that story on the robots, I think of IRobot when they all go nutso? That would be really screwy. Robots don't have any feelings or flight or fight instinct. Who is to know that they wouldn't just shoot to kill as opposed to negotiations?

The Vette story was cool. Imagine havin your car returned like that heh. Pretty neat. Like the cats that travel home to meet their owners across country.

Geezus...that "Don't Go to This School" link shows some twisted stuff you can't do. I'd be fined a whole hell of a lotta money if I did go there! Although I probably wouldn't make it past the application process.

Hahahaha, I'm loving that school site. But there's nothing in there that says you can't be gay. Unless you like to watch gay porn, be in any state of undress, or show affection beyond holding hands.

Hahahahaha. I feel sorry for the people that go to that school.

This school came to one of my school's college fairs. Being the uninformed prospective student I was, some of my friends convinced me to ask the information lady if she would call the school a 'party school'. I've never heard such a fast, convincing, and flatly-delivered 'no' in my life.
