The internet used to be full of pages that made no sense and didn't need to. Most of them are gone, but a surprising number are still out there, doing one strange thing for anyone who wanders in. These are the weird websites worth your time: art experiments, endless scrolls, and a few strange websites that are hard to explain even after you've seen them.
They're all free, none of them need an account, and every link below was opened and checked before it went on the list. If you'd rather be surprised, the button on the home page picks a weird site for you at random.

How this list is made
Cedrick Reese put this list together from the sites in Random Site Generator's own collection, plus a few newer finds. Before a site made it onto the page, it was opened to confirm it still loads and still does the strange thing it's known for. Sites that went dark or were taken over after their domains changed hands, like the original Zombo.com, were left out. When a link here breaks, it comes off this list and out of the button's collection too.
