Top site, the Ian Knot must have already saved me cumulative hours of shoelace tying time.
About bicycle maintenance.
Legendary fella in bike circles. I was sad when he died.
Speaking of bikes, https://www.bikeforums.net/ is still alive and pretty much unchanged. I wonder if the Helmet Wars are still being waged. LOL, yep.
Not super niche:
This is a cultural milestone in humanities history.
This brings me back.
I’d thoroughly learn everything I could before doing a drug, so I could use it responsibly, and then proceed to use it in as reckless and irresponsible fashion as possible.
Ah. To be young again.
Well you first try it slowly and carefully until you build confidence and take greater risks.
Thank you for reminding me this exists!
This is what the Internet looked like in 2004. I love this site for both it’s stated purpose, and the nostalgia of the design. Click it if you dare.
Still fully operational and has kept alll the rich features that made it indispensable when it was new.
zombocom! Came here to say the same thing. I still pull it up once or twice a year for inspiration. You can do anything! The unattainable is unknown!

Although there’s still some contention around them from ex members that left before they all put on the white suits, laced up their Nikes, and drank the kool aid.
I vaguely remember a documentary where they were interviewed but can’t recall many specifics. There was also a sub reddit that (supposed) ex-members used to post in and many of them had a bone to pick with Mark and Sarah King about some of their claims.
I guess when you’re all in on crazy… I got nothing to finish that with.
It’s where I got my cool sigs! Also, it looks pretty much identical to how I remember it. I only found out it was still running a month or two ago.
What was this made with? I’ve seen a few old sites like this
I have no idea. Given its age, probably either hand coded or using a template / theme. It has a little bit of information about its creation at the bottom of the front page.
