I’m a big fan of quotations. I also like cartoons. I believe in randomness. Put all three together and you have the design for a number of websites.
One is The Nietzsche Family Circus which pairs a randomized Family Circus cartoon with a randomized Friedrich Nietzsche quote. Doesn’t sound like it would work, but it does.

It has the approval of Garfield creator Jim Davis
