I will miss geocities. It was always nice going to one of those sites because it was like going back in time without a time machine, so I could relive the times when the internet looked lame. At least we still have Angelfire, as another user stated.

And yet somehow they're still around. The original site used to fascinate my sister for hours. It was like baby crack.

I'll be honest here, I actually own the Hampster Dance CD. I remember begging my mom for it around Christmas 2002 or a Christmas somewhere in that time frame.

Mod Man's mom hung herself three days after buying her son the CD.

Actually I listened to it once and never again touched the disc until I ripped all of my CD's to my Zune years later in 2007.

Trust me I hated the fucking CD the second I heard it, it was fun whenever it was on the radio here or there but actually owning it just made me want to puke.

Still though randomly pulling out the MP3 whenever I'm in a friend's car during a shuffle marathon is hilarious.

If anyone is really looking to torture people this Christmas, I have 'William Hung - Hung for the Holidays' that an ebay seller gave me as a 'bonus' when I bought Lamb - What Sound Deluxe. :roll:
