SFW weird corners of the internet. See something amusingly specific? Could belong here. Remember the odd pages you'd come across on StumbleUpon? We can live those days again....

Filed under Humor/Memes but it doesn't have to be funny.

note from kixiQu: I post a good amount of things from href.cool and marijn's linkroll into this sub because I think they have a lot of fabulous examples. if anyone gets tired of it, DM me.

Is there a name for this kind of thing? "GIF painting" captures something about how the GIFs are being layered and composited differently from ye olde Geocities, but maybe it should be "collage" to capture the aspects of reuse.

Anyway, it's a genre that's taking off on Multiverse and on mmm.page and I find it really interesting. Please feel free to comment with any you've come across and liked; the more artistic hubris evident, the better.
