Be kind to eyes
Can't...breathe. Laughing...too...hard.When I discovered my web designer husband having a near-coronary over this site (courtesy of Web Pages That Suck), I had to check it out.
There's almost nothing funny that can be said about a site as bad as the one for the Association of International Glaucoma Societies. It is its own best ridiculer. I'll just say that it made me wish I had glaucoma.
Don't miss these highlights:
- Disembodied heads playing peek-a-boo and jockeying for position in the upper left corner
- The hauntingly incoherent "Glaucoma Hymn"
- The creepy eyeball Flash animation in the lower left corner (run your cursor over it to make it blink)
- The 149 photos of the 2005 World Glaucoma Congress (of which this riveting shot of a guy contemplating the crudite plate is typical)
I would link to them here, but they might get mad at me. Don't ask why I care.
Besides, your eyes need a rest.

But at least he doesn't have bobbing peek-a-boo heads in the header. Holy cow, what are these folks thinking? Or (obvious joke ahead) were they just unable to see how bad it was?

The former is obviously under construction (although not for long, if he hopes to win), while the latter is beyond hope.

I actually find the bobbing heads soothing. Perhaps Chris could write a Web service that would provide bobbing heads of different specialties (dentists, Greek Orthodox priests, etc.).

Life is so much funnier than fiction.
