Ridellaįor Wordle addicts hungry for more once-daily stimulation, this site offers a riddle – the kind of thing a troll would make you solve to cross a bridge – one line at a time. Dip in for the likes of a guide to Swedish islands, intimate Victorian portraiture by a viscountess or 1920s matchboxes. I have no idea how Vanessa Grall comes up with the cabinet of art, design, fashion and historical wonders that have filled her website for the past 12 years I just know she has better taste than I ever will. This kind of stuff can swiftly become annoying or samey, but useless animal wrangler Amanda has funny bones, and pretty much everything she posts is entertaining. Karen the murderous emu, Brad, a furious fluffball cockerel, and several dopey alpacas live on this Canadian smallholding absolutely failing to earn their keep, other than on TikTok and Instagram. We should all be more Barry.Īmanda with an emu on Useless Farm. They are usually an affront to God and man (ironed bread and mushroom soup, condensed milk, flour, egg and vinegar) but Barry gives each one a fair go and a generous assessment.

Sandwiches of HistoryĪn American man called Barry delves into old recipe books and then taste-tests the sandwiches he finds in them on YouTube. Her newest entry describing the deficiencies of linen sheets made me laugh out loud (“Would you like to take a nap on Nan Pierce?”).

The consistently hilarious Chicago-based medical publisher Mimi Smartypants has been blogging since the internet was just fields of billowing unspoilt html and her riffs on whatever amuses or outrages her – public transport encounters and the general absurdity of life – are endlessly delightful. Photograph: PHAS/Universal Images Group/Getty Images Weird Medieval GuysĬheck out the titles of some of these Substack posts by the historian Olivia Swarthout and tell me you don’t want to read more: “What does a biblically accurate angel look like?” “No, the king doesn’t own all the swans in Britain” “Do you have less free time than a medieval peasant?” Clickbait, but medieval (and highly informative). 5.Detail of Giovanni Battista Cima’s 1495 The Annunciation … but is it biblically accurate? Find out on Weird Medieval Guys. This is a thoroughly pointless website yet altogether amazing nonetheless. So far I’ve collected 25 wows, and according to the web page, my Doge is “wow wow long.” Is this a testament to the useless web in all its glory? Yes. With each scroll or flick of your finger, you’ll collect wows - yes, wows! You’ll find a glorious pixel graphic of the internet’s beloved pup, the Doge. If you need a good chuckle, check out this site. Oh yes, the cute cat’s ultimate rival, the Doge! Unless you use the internet solely for work and nothing fun, you most certainly are aware of the internet’s affinity for the Doge. But it’s one of those weird websites you’d find trending on Twitter for no reason other than its wonderfully useless nature. But wait, it gets better! When you click the “make it rain” button, a deluge of cats rains down from the top of the screen. Cat BounceĬats are a staple in internet meme culture, so it only makes sense that there are multiple useless websites putting cats front and center.Ĭat Bounce is maybe the most useless website of websites on this list. What more can you ask for? Clicking on a random color to reveal a silly cat with laser sci-fi eyes is just fun. Uselesscatgame knows its purpose: to be a useless website for people with nothing to do but kill time on a pointless website. Maybe that’s why One Fish Studio brought us a cheeky little game to waste time on when we should be doing something better - the uselesscatgame.Ĭlick on a random color and you’ll be rewarded with - you guessed it - a cat with laser eyes.

One Fish Studio’s uselesscatgameĪre quirky cats still trending in 2021? Trending or not, cats are almost synonymous with internet culture. It’s also a neat way to learn to code! 2. Check out the website and play around a bit if you have time to kill. It’s an amusing interactive web page and someone’s love letter to code. Perhaps it was designed to live out those 90s hacker film fantasies in real life, like Hackers or Weird Science. HackerTyper is one of those websites that exists but you can’t quite put your finger on why it exists.

Fun weird websites
