Can someone explain this site?  I went over there for the first time and just LMAO.  Is it just a joke site?

Does the name "KennyR" or "XraalE" ring a bell?  :lol:

The disclaimer section of that web site has this to say: "WrongPlanet is a satirical reflection of the Amiga Community. No offence meant!"

Wrongplanet is awesome, its a shame it hasn't been updated in a while, but then its basically just two(?) people writing when they have the time / feel like it...
I like Amigas

The site reminds me of The Onion. Pretty funny.

Nice "interview" Wayne.  :lol:

you have to take it with a grain of salt if you're in one of their "interviews" or "stories".  What makes it funny is that I know everyone they are talking about.  (not personally but I know who it is in the Amiga community).  I'm just glad there isnt a story about me.  LOL

I'm just glad that it exists. People should be able to laugh at themselves and their peers....

I must admit, I took to reading it when I'd had a couple of ales, as it actually made me laugh.
