Never ever try to explain how a program works in English rather than code. That's the result if you try. :D
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.

Turn off your computer and walk away, you are no longer allowed to own it. :P
*quick Wikipedia search later* What, so because I've never played Half-Life, I don't deserve to own a computer?  Meh...ground-pounders :p

I found this one disturbing somehow...

Why? It's just some moderately hot chick drinking beer. Am I missing something?

That's the girl who plays Hermoine, or at least she looks exactly like her.

Honestly, I don't see many/any that are truly great... Just a looping gif, or a single image and music looping in the background...

Perhaps I'm dense, but what's the point?

I'm likely missing something... I've only found a very very select few funny. :/

There typically isn't much of a point to them, really. I don't know about other people, but it's usually the juxtapositioning  of the images and sounds, as well as the often bizzare combinations of ideas that does it for me. There's a lot of WTF-humor in wondering exactly how people came up with most of my favorite fads (and most YTMND's in general), like the Future Conan line. Every time I look and see how that fad started and then progressed, I can't help but laugh at how absurd the concept is and wonder how people manage to think up things like it.
