Websites That Should Exist

Catching up with a friend in Oxford over drinks, a moment of nostalgia for The West Wing led our thoughts by way of the fictional thingsthatarewrong.com (apparently debunking urban myths & bad science) to websites that are absolutely necessary yet so far unrealized. Here's what we came up with...

wheredidileaveit.com
Suggestions for the absent of mind.

doesntholdacandleto.com
A place that prepares you for disappointment with new work by Dylan, Bowie, The Stones, Neil Young, Philip Roth, Martin Amis, Woody Allen, Francis Ford Coppola, Godard, Tarantino etc.

theyareouttogetme.com
A place for those on witness-protection programs.

aretheyabunnyboiler.com
User-generated content for all orientations and genders to vet potential dates.

idontrememberthatfreckle.com
A place for health reassurance.

youremymate.com
A social-networking site for drinkers.

ithoughttheyweredead.com
A compendium of public figures doing substantially less well of late.

didileavethegason.com
A place for the obsessive-compulsive.

aretheyreal.com
A place devoted to the aesthetics of plastic surgery.
