    Wow… what a burst of nostalgia that is.

    Long before doomscrolling or even wikiwalking, I whiled away countless hours following random links to sites like these.

    Wow, a website devoted to people who interpreted the inner workings of payphones they encountered. That’s a cool one right off the bat. Now I’m just proud I know of a payphone that still works.

    Stuff like this always rekindles a desire to throw one of these together again — I’m a few more rainy/smoky days indoors away from doing it

    I actually use Wiby from time to time to find forgotten things. Their random website generator is a lot of fun. I can also confirm that the developer is still around and responds to people because when I was on Twitter (about a year ago before I finally left), Wiby was down and I found his account on there and messaged him about and he responded the same day. Cool guy.

      A recently noted medical phenomenon involves small amounts of DHMO leaking or oozing from the corners of the eyes as a direct result of causes such as foreign particulate irritation, allergic reactions including anaphylactic shock, and sometimes severe chemical depression.
