This
collection of satirical websites is among the best
that the web has to offer. The foibles and
absurdity of people in the news and the culture
around us that is the staple of satire can make us
laugh, think and cry. Sometimes it can even
provoke or prevent change.
Avery Ant
A
complicated and edgy insect
who knows no boundaries and plays by his own
rules. I'm a "won't be censored," hard-living,
fun-loving, rant-spewing, comedic word slinger.
In essence, an explosion of opinions, ego, and id…
Some people might even say everything they'd like
to be if they weren't bound by the shackles of
repression and self-censorship…

not for our Mothers.

Cooking to Hook Up
Casanova, arguably the most successful seducer in
history, had a simple philosophy: Get to know the
woman, find out what she lacks, and provide it.

However, and this is the big however, you must
choose the right food, the food that works for
that particular girl.
Cooking to Hook Up
gives you complete meals designed for every female
taste.

Satirium
Satirium
- We Americans are blessed
to live in a place and a time in which one is free
to mirror society through satirical writing.
Generally, libel law in the United States protects
the satirist, since his or her writings are so
obviously parody, since it's so clear that the
subject being written about would never actually
say or do such a thing. Or that such a situation
or event would ever arise.

Specious Report

semi-regularly ever since

Watley Review is dedicated to the
production of articles completely without
journalistic merit or factual basis, as this would

such."
