Hall of Technical Documentation Weirdness, a collection of weird technical documentation illustrations, oddly enough.

Shrug. They're not weird. They're not even particulary funny. Must be a slow day in documentation land.

I found this to be weird, but maybe it's just the Japanized English... I also found the site funny, so funny in fact that I squirted a Harvey Wallbanger out my nose and onto my keyboard. No, really...

Must be a slow day in documentation land. It's all relative.

Waitaminute, that ones not funny... Why would you choose the least funny one as an example, and show it without the accompanying text, unless... Unless you knew that, and were just being sardonic? See? This is just the kind of humor I enjoy on MetaFilter...

Sardonic? That USB port is so much larger than the connector. The disproportionate size between connector and port almost made me spit coffee out of my nose. Such wacky documentation! You, sir, have no funny bone.
