What better way to break the silence around here than to point out that there exists a Firefox extension called Bork Bork Bork that will read a website to you using the Swedish Chef's voice. It's stuff like this that reaffirms that the interweb is a weird and truly wonderful place.
I happened to run across said extension while trying to find one that will show missing images at the correct HTML-specified dimensions. Basically, if an image is missing from a page, by default Firefox only shows you the ALT text. So, if you specified a 300 pixel by 200 pixel image, when that image doesn't load you get a compact little piece of text instead of a big rectangle. Safari and Internet Explorer display an empty but correctly sized object in lieu of the missing image. Anyone know of a way to make Firefox do it? Is there a greasemonkey script or an extension for it?

There's a bit of history here too. Opera was the first "borked" browser as a protest against Microsoft for MSN's filtering of Opera users.
The Internet truly is great.
