Those are your shoes. These are my shoes. We've got issues.

I sense a healthy amount of skepticism in your previous comment. I said "if submitted today" which is essentially the same as "if those sites had been released today", yet you said that I said "re-submitted", and I'm putting words in YOUR mouth? Then you go on a tirade about self-righteous angst-ridden kids who downvote sites and are easy reads for a psych major, but they still teach superiority complexes and paranoid delusions, not to mention false generalizations and unsubstantiated inferences, right?

Funny comment thread. "NOISE SITES AREN'T SATIRE!" Did you see that? I put what you said in all caps. Most noise sites are spoofs (much like Meet The Spartans), some are farces, and some are actual quality parody. Many are certainly satirical, and many are certainly awful and unimaginative. As for '05 sites being poorly rated if submitted today... that's because they've already been done. Originality keeps people from getting bored, keeps people from making Meet The Spartans, try it out sometime.

and certain periods of ytmnd's history may be completely unrepresented or overly represented. Furthermore, some sites may get in at one point that may not have gotten in at any other point in history merely because the voting pattern at that point in time is higher than at any other time even though it is still hierarchically in the same position relative to those other sites nominated along side it as in any other period). Those are the things to consider as I see it.
