you can always rely on portalofevil.com as being a source of completely insane websites.

...not that there's anything the least bit insane about this one, which has been added recently: http://www.michaelkelly.fsnet.co.uk/karl.htm

This was featured in The Guardian... it is truly scary.

wow...was the guardian piece devoted to this website in particular, or did it take a more general look at net-weirdness?

It was in the "Diary" section, actually. It's their website of the month.

Upon reading the whole site, it's a shame to find this is a parody. The voice was reminiscent of a kinda sexual-Geir.

"The voice was reminiscent of a kinda sexual-Geir."

heh-heh...

so it is in fact merely a parody of slash fiction? wow. some or all of it? i'm confused, because i've seen similarly insane things that were done in earnest...and many of the things listed in the guy's archives are british things that i'm not actually familiar with...living in the states and all...

I think the "desired" slash fiction thing gives it away... how many Northern Europeans know who Julie Burchill or Kirsty Wark are?

Ever since fanfiction.net stop publishing music slash, the world has been a sorrier place. I mean, System of a Down slash? Jeez...

Fandomination never quite filled that void, did it?

two weeks pass...

...and as anyone familiar with slash fiction would know, many of the stranger pairings are done on dares or as jokes.
