Let me start at the beginning. This website that I'm about to review, well, they say some pretty mean things, and they say them while using some pretty foul language. That said, I think its awesome, even if I disagree with alot, if not most, of what they're screamin' - though I know they're using irony like a palette and sarcasm as their brush.The site, Factual Material, is really a collection of opinions that are, in the author's stated opinions, to be regarded as fact. They use HTML in the most elementary way, giving (I think intentionally) their website that "doomsday conspiracy" look. Awesome.
They really don't seem to like the French. Hmm.
Anyway, when the kids are tucked or the boss is out of town, and you are a little bored, this site (recommended, by the way, by the instant messenger buddy info thingy of my former student, Tricia the Militia) is worth a few minutes. Beware of drinking while reading it - you'll blow soda all over yourself.

This site, while humorous, is a shameful, paltry pantomime of the work of one of my personal heroes, Maddox. From the bold, simplistic HTML right down to the prolific hate mail...it's a copycat.
If you're looking for this brand of awesomeness, only actual awesomeness, look no further than Maddox. And he's got archives from several years back. And he wrote a book.
If that's not enough, (genuine recommendation coming up) go read as many Tucker Max stories as you can. Particularly the UT weekend story.
maddox and factualmaterial are two different things. there are plenty of sites with sarcastic authors and it doesnt mean they all have to be compared to maddox just because hes the most popular one. that being said, im sad that factualmaterial.com is no longer online, because i kept forgetting the address and now i remember and its too late! they have humor that maddox just doesnt cover. it doesnt make one better than the other, its just more than one source of AWESOMENESS... which is always a good thing.
