The Daily Sucker

Daily Sucker #2 for Thursday, August 14, 2008

August 15th, 2008 1:01 am by Vincent Flanders

Submitter comments: Someone sent me this link. I’m sorry they did. There are so many banners and links, I didn’t know where to look first. It was easier to close the browser window.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: This site belongs to a category I call “Over the Top.” An “Over the Top” web site is just like pornography — you know it when you see it. Accept Jesus, Forever Forgiven! is the perfect example.

“Over the Top” web sites generally deal with philosophy, religion, and politics, but they’re not mainstream. Rush Limbaugh’s site would fall into the “Over the Top” category, except he’s mainstream (even so his site is just a smidgen away from being a Daily Sucker).

While the Jeff Rense Program site is world’s away from the “Accept Jesus” site, it makes use of the stereotypical lime green text intermingled with yellow text. Some text is centered, while other text is flush left and, of course, the page goes on forever. The background for the subpages looks straight out of 1996.

I also don’t know whether to be frightened by or jealous of Mr. Rense’s hair.
