Oddballs: Sites with No Purpose

What's the point? Nothing really when it comes to oddball websites. Well, at least nothing serious...

Most sites will likely have a purpose: to buy socks, read poems, or even to enjoy human anatomy & physiology. Oddballs don't.

What's "useful and has purpose" and what's "useless and pointless" may vary from person to person. It also depends your purpose at the time. Our focus is on websites that are "useless and pointless" at anytime to almost anyone.

You'll know you've stumbled across an oddball site when you start scratching your head and mouth to yourself, "What the <expletive> is this??" Strangely enough, you continue to browse the site. The more curious the curiosity, the harder it is to leave it. Often enough, you'll find yourself chuckling a little or sometimes even guffawing right out, literally rolling on the floor laughing.
