Spatula City - Humor
Virtual Spatula City Interface(TM) contains some things that I think are funny.
This is an "old" site (more than 10 years old) that was originally created by Stefan "Twoflower" Gagne, who writes of the site,
"Back in my day, we didn't have any fancy XML or cascading style sheets! We had Netscape 1.1 with the big throbbing N and we LIKED IT! ... anyway, this is a nice museum piece of early '90s college student driven internet humor pages. Unchanged since its release and a neat nostalgia trip."
My first encounter with Spatula City was The Really Big Button That Doesn't Do Anything in the era before broadband, blogs, YouTube, The Onion etc.
I think the button idea was interesting because the comments people came up with were sometimes clever, or funny and invited interaction.
The button makes the not overly subtle point that it might be as worthwhile to spend your time pushing a button that doesn't do anything on the web as it is to do anything else on the web. I like to think that was more true in the early 90's than today with Google, tags, web 2.0, and a lot more content that is easy to locate.
You have a certain silly sense of humor and a willingness to just fool around, "wasting time", to appreciate the site.
You might find something that will make you laugh or at least crack a smile. If nothing else it may be, as Stefan says, "a neat nostalgia trip" to see what was considered cool not all that long ago.
