Let’s Get Freaky: 10 Super Weird Things You’ll Find on the Internet

The Internet is a beautiful and terrifying place. 

If you spend a lot of time online, you probably think that you’ve seen it all. However, the Internet is the gift that keeps on giving, and there is always something more to see. 

One of the best things about it is how random it is. If you look, you can find some super weird things on the Internet. You kind of have to wonder how people come up with this stuff…

In the mood to see something freaky? Look no further. Here are ten of the weirdest things on the Internet. 

1. Salad Fingers

Early YouTube was a strange, strange place. 

Before vloggers took over the site and started racking up millions of views, YouTube was a place where you could find the most random and funny videos. Or, in some cases, just the creepiest ones. Salad Fingers was one of those videos. 

It’s a flash animation series that was started in the early 2000s (yes, series — there are ten episodes) about a character named Salad Fingers with a creepy voice, unsettling fingers, and sock puppets. It’s weird, it’s disconcerting, and you won’t be able to stop watching. 

2. OMG Laser Guns

Have you ever wanted to make a space squirrel shoot laser guns? Why not, right? 

On OMG Laser Guns, you can choose your fighter and shoot at fruit or whichever celebrity the website owners dislike that day. And yes, it comes complete with spoken “pew pew!” sound effects. 

It’s so much fun that this might become your new time-waster. Try to beat your new high score every time you come back. 

(P.S. — if your browser can’t handle online games, this website can help you out.)

3. The Collective Unconscious

We’re all guilty of wasting too much time online. That doesn’t mean we want to know just how much time we spend in front of a screen. 

If you’re curious, though (or just really bored) you can find out how much time you waste online. In fact, The Collective Unconscious lets you watch in real time. 

This website is literally just a timer that tracks how much time you’ve wasted on their site. It’ll also tell you how much time other people have wasted so that you don’t feel alone. Solidarity. 

4. Lone Comment

Online comment sections are a dangerous gamble. You might find some really thoughtful, well-reasoned comments, or it might just be an endless sea of people declaring, “First!” 

If you’ve always dreamed of being the top comment on a website, you can make your dream come true with Lone Comment…for a price. Instead of having a lot of different comments, this website only displays one comment at a time. 

Anyone can post a comment, but the catch is that you have to pay more than the person before you did for it to be displayed. How badly do you want everyone to have to read what you have to say? 

5. Little Baby’s Ice Cream

Some things on the Internet are random, others are meant to be disturbing, others are accidentally unsettling. Little Baby’s Ice Cream is the latter. 

Believe it or not, there was a marketing company who actually thought it would be a good idea to film a commercial where it looks like someone is eating ice cream off of their head. Which is melting. Because their head is also ice cream? 

Honestly, who knows what’s going on in this video. It’s definitely one of the weirdest things you’ll ever watch. 

6. Prancercise

First, there was the eighties fitness craze. Then, there was Tae-Bo and kickboxing home video. Now, there is Prancercise. Let’s stop talking and do some walking! 

If you’ve ever wanted to just prance around your house and call it exercise, Prancercise is for you. This accidentally viral YouTube video is supposed to be an introduction to what its creator wanted to be a new fitness craze. 

It’s a mix between galloping like a horse, kind of dancing to a song only you can hear, and randomly pointing your toes in whatever direction you want. 

7. My Animal Weight

On the off chance that you’ve ever wanted to know how many ants it would take to match your body weight, there’s a website for that. Because of course there is. 

My Animal Weight is exactly what it sounds like — it lets you know what your weight is in animals. Are you one-twentieth of a gorilla, or two million ants? There’s only one way to find out. 

8. Eel Slap

You slap a man in the face with an eel. Or you can gently rub it against his face. Whatever, it’s up to you. 

Eel Slap is one of those incredibly simple websites that’s somehow really entertaining. You control the eel with your mouse, which you can then use to smack an innocent man at high speed. Or, if you’re feeling nice, you can just tap him with it. It’s really up to you. 

9. Zoom Quilt

It’s easy to picture a teenager zoning out in front of this website for hours. Zoom Quilt endlessly zooms into the center of a picture, which then becomes another picture, which then reveals another picture…

How deep does it go? You’ll have to keep watching to find out. There are different images that you can choose from, but odds are that you’ll be too absorbed by the first one that loads to even notice the sidebar. 

10. Patience Is A Virtue

Having slow internet is one of the most frustrating things in the world. You definitely learn pretty quickly that patience is a virtue. 

If you’re used to seeing the loading signal all the time, you might not even notice anything weird about Patience Is A Virtue. Here’s a hint — you’re going to keep waiting for the site to change, and it will stay the same no matter how long you stare at it.
