"Funny" may not be the appropriate word. The Bud Ugly page
(http://www.wwwvoice.com/bud/bud.html) is
satirical and uses irony to amuse and mentally arouse those
readers who understand the difference between ugly pages and
well designed pages.
Cheers.

P.S. I love reading the Dilbert cartoon series. Scott Adams,
the author, uses satire to drive the Dilbert world. We might
think of Dilbert as "business ugly."
