What Is The Internet Oracle? Cyber Humor Community

Recommended Posts

The Internet Oracle is a graet community of humor creators in the web. As stated in its website, its origin can be traced back to Harvard Science Center in 1975-76. After several changes, it was finally renamed and registered as it is known today, in 1996.

It works quite simply. Users post their questions to the Oracle, familiarily known as "Orrie." There is a group of "priests" who provide all the necessary administration so other users are given the chance to respond with their best sense of humor. :( If you want to post a question you would have to respond one as the payment.

The result is generally great multicultural humor and a wide variety of points of view. Some responses may seem profound, others may be, plainly ridiulous. But most of them are really hilarious.

This is just a sample that you can find in It's Ominicent website :D
Or if you register you can get them by email.

The Internet Oracle

I hope it is not too long. Enjoy ;)

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:
> Og get message! Og told by Or-a-kle that Og get digested!
>
> Og not want be digested! Og father be digested by big lizard! Og father
> big pile of lizard poop! Og not want be digested! That hurt Og!
>
> How Og stop Or-a-kle Priests from digesting Og in future?
And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Thag here.  Oracle say Thag prob'ly not mess up Og question too bad.
}
} Thag not see Og bash head with rock.  Thag not see Og throw dirt on
} head. Thag say, Og hit self with spiky club until eyes go black.  Thag
} answer Og question anyway.  Thag nice guy.  Thag feel bad for Og
} father.
}
} Thag present Top Many Way Og Not Get Digested.
}
} Many) Og grovel better.  Og not get zot, priests get bored.
} Many) Og ask stupid question, not funny.  This one easy.
} Many) Og send question "beavis".  Thag not know either, but it work.
} Many) Og get Aborigine On-Line account.
} Many) Og tell Oracle Og name "B1FF".
} Some) Og ask boring question.
} Some) Og go back, use Neanderthal spelling.
} Few) Og not make list.  Priests like lists.  Thag take big risk for Og
}      here.
} Two) Og stay far from box-with-pictures.  Priests geeks.  Like box-with-
}      pictures question.
}
} And number one way Og not get digested:
}
} One) Og ask Oracle woodchuck question.  Not get digested.  Get zot
}      though.
}
} Og owe Thag many giant lizard.  Thag like get digested.

anybody here have joined the community? If yes what did u find there? how about the users ? how were their information level? Thx If Answer.

Well, I am not sure I understand all your questions. But I'll try to answer.

I joined this community several years ago. What you get from the community is humor in your mail. That's it. There is no direct interaction among its members. If you go to the site you will only find archieves and a registration form for the "newsletter." Browsing the archives is worth it if you have time enough. I do prefer to read the "newsletter" once or twice a month with the best replied questions. You are also given a form to "grade" each question and its reply if you wish to do so. That helps the priests decide what the crowd is looking for. As of our level of knowledge, I am not sure what you meant by that.

Give it a try. It's completely free. No spyware, no bugs, quite straightforward, and to me, really really funny. :D If you don't like it you can always unregister. And you will probably give us your point of view. Remember "laughter is the best medicine."

Regards,

Joe
