The Daily Sucker

Submitter comments: Here is a bad site I recently came across — New Belgium Brewing, makers of one of my favorite beers, “Fat Tire.”

It’s not just the Mystery Meat Navigation. The navigation keeps going and going. Use your arrow keys to “ride” endlessly past moving pictures, exposing an ever growing amount of where do I click? and what does this picture do? crap.

The one thing they have going for them is the “Low Bandwidth” version is more familiar, but not really easy to use. Where the hell is the contact us link? I guess they have become tired of hearing how bad their Flash site sucks.

Thanks for all you have done.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: There’s a part of me that says, “The site is supposed to look stupid” and there’s a part of me that says, “The phrase ’supposed to’ is just an excuse.”

Even when you accidentally go to a page with content, you can’t read it because of the lack of contrast between the small text and the background. Sheesh. It’s just an overwraught Flashturbation fantasy.

I love the fact that if you click the link below, you bypass the site’s age check mechanism. Of course, underage visitors can just as easily claim to be 55 years old.
