Cathy's Realm of Dream Poetry
I should have known that searching for 'my lovely awards' on Google would turn up something specially sad. The top result, (out of 169,000), is a page which features this breathtaking item of web page finery, "Cathy's Dream Poetry Award For: Excellence in Design", together with a link to the website, (or should I say 'realm'?), of its creator.
I've seen some pretty sad sh*t when looking for sites to feature on iamsad, but this is like a doorway into another level of naffness - a parallel universe of weeping, fat middle-aged women writing poetry so bad that reading it aloud would loosen cladding.
CathysRealm
Enter at your own risk. There are many levels to this site, and multiple 'please enter' links lure you ever deeper into what must be the closest thing I've experienced to a virtual crematorium waiting-room. The background music gets progressively worse and darkly trance inducing to the point where if you actually read one of the 'poems' with the background music at a reasonable level and some of the lovely animated graphics flying around and then suddenly stop and close your browser, you get the same effect as when leaving a cinema after watching a matinee after a couple of pints - a kind of bleary darkness into light sensation. Spooky. :o{
