There’s a bunch of places I visit for my usual fixes, be it for comics, torrents or just forums. My list has cropped up to be rather huge at times, turning up to over 100 sites and irc-channels, and you can correctly assume that that is way too much for just one person to be doing for a longer period of time. Eventually I burnt out, and stopped visiting any of them altogether. At some point I cleaned it out and removed all of them, stayed off the net for a while, and when I came back I approached it all by memory. It’s worked out quite nicely for a while now, and I’m at a rather limited amount of visits, with a few sporadic ones.
ComixFixes
Sinfest.net – The funniest of them all. Religion, media, anything “holy” is touched and ridiculed. I love this guy.
Striptease – Funny, serious, with a whiff of drama. Strangely funny, and I keep returning to it.
ErrantStory – Probably my favourite story-teller of them all. Funny, and creative. He might not be the best, but his style is nice and familiar by now, and he’s really good with what he’s got.
AppleGeeks – There’s something hilarious about apple-geeks with self-irony, and creating good stories with an amazing pencil.
PennyArcade – A sharp pencil, great wit and amazing skill. Hilarious fun-poking at games and the gaming-industry.
GU Comics – One man, one comic, one loooong string of good laughs. Woody Hearn deserves visits. Repeated ones at that.
ForumFixes
TheFlamingRuby.net – The site of the WoW-guild I am a member of. Nice people I wouldn’t want to be without. Been my home in WoW since March ‘05 I think. Probably makes me one of the oldest active members there as well.
ElitistJerks.com – I play WoW. I want to be as good as possible, and know as much as possible. This is the place for an intelligent discourse on WoW-theorycraft.
Wowace.com – I play WoW. I use addons for WoW. This is where I get my addons for WoW.
apforums.net – One Piece is the best manga ever. Yes, it’s been said. This is where I hang to find releases and discussions about this downright brilliant manga.
NewsFixes
BBC.com – The best source for news in the world, in my opinion. They’ve always felt like the more reliable source of news.
vg.no – Shitty, full of ads, and takes an eternity to load. Still one of the biggest news-outlets in Norway amply aided by a short address.
slyck.com – Small, critical, and still in the game. It might not be the biggest, but it offers news, and a place to find it, about the p2p world.
gamespot.com – Big, bad, and clunky to load, but still the best source for news about games.
arstechnica.com – One of the better and more interesting sites about tech-news and such. It feels good atleast.
Independent Comics Site – This is partially a comixfix, but eh… news about comics is always cool *grins*
OddFix
I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER ? – I love cats, and these cats are hilarious in addition. I visit this site every now and then, and I never fail to be amused.
I should admit that I’m pretty bad at visiting blogs or sites beyond these with any regularity for reasons I’m not entirely sure about.
