In the comments of this post, BeckoningChasm points us to Spamusement, a webcomic that takes the titles of email spam and turns them into amusing cartoons. We’ve all seen emails with stupid titles like “It’s cheating, but it works!“, or “Your Life Ins. Company PRAYS you will NEVER SEE this“
Brilliant stuff. A few of my favorites so far:
Women change your life
Personalized Letters from Santa
Amazing Software Types While You Talk
And the best for last:
Netscape 1997
What did web browsers look like 20 years ago, and what kind of crazy features did they have?
The Plot-Driven Door
You know how videogames sometimes do that thing where it's preposterously hard to go through a simple door? This one is really bad.
Deus Ex and The Treachery of Labels
Deus Ex Mankind Divided was a clumsy, tone-deaf allegory that thought it was clever, and it managed to annoy people of all political stripes.
Why Batman Can't Kill
His problem isn't that he's dumb, the problem is that he bends the world he inhabits.
Internet News is All Wrong
Why is internet news so bad, why do people prefer celebrity fluff, and how could it be made better?

It’s frequently quite hard to breathe after reading some of Steven’s work, my lungs are just exhausted from laughing so hard.
It’s also fun to contribute to the forums, as it makes one actively check spam for possibilities…
Thanks for the link, very funny stuff. I should mention that I started reading your blog due to the DM of the Rings comic, which I highly enjoy.
