If metafilter was "the dumbest of the web", it would have a LOT more content than it does now.

Does no one remember Hamster Dance? (And the ensuing rants about people misspelling it as "hampster"?)

Not necessarily the stupidest, but my favorite stupid thing would have to be the Time Cube.

But the badgers rock.

No, no, no, it was Hampster Dance, but everyone went around misspelling it 'hamster'.

I gotta vote for Mahir. Not so much the guy, who seems nice, but the fact that he's famous at all.

I would look through the SomethingAwful.com Awful Link of the Day if you truly want to see stupid (and not really entertaining) sites.
