Oops, I made it a link in the post. It’s this guy’s site that has a combination of literature and humor articles. It’s hit or miss. My opinion is that about a quarter of the submitted articles get admitted on the basis of their sheer dripping ostentation, and not the ironic sort. But if you dig a bit, you can find some genuine nuggets.
