So in the interests of *ehem* research I asked the good people of Twitter what their favourite funny websites were. This is one of the great things about Twitter, you can ask questions and discover new things in what might be classed as an ‘organic’ way (like asking lots of people at a party rather than cold calling).
Anyway here are the ones that came back and they’re good. They’re very good.

The Escapist aims to capture and celebrate the contemporary video gaming lifestyle and the diverse global video game culture. Yes really. But apparently the Zero Punctuation videos are very very good.

A celebration of goths in the sunshine. Pictures are judged of gothiness and sweatiness. Nice.

Hi Melanie,
It may be that Laura got the idea for the website from you, however she suggested it to me and so gets the mention. Next time I do this if you have a website you would like to suggest, please do send it to me as I can only mention only the people who submit ideas.

Hey Alex,
I was just kidding around. No offence intended or taken…
