Fark/Totalfark was fun for a while but descended into an echo chamber of cliques and in-jokes. It was a good preview of what reddit would eventually become.
They also had a redesign fiasco.
2000-2003 Something Awful was my favorite internet community/site ever. It's too bad about what happened with Ozma and Fistgrrl. Oh well.
Photoshop Friday was kinda hit or miss, for for the funny ones they were really funny
