The Internet is scary

It's full of nasty people doing all kinds of horrible things to themselves and each other. And animals.

However, it's also full of equally horrid types who are trying to undermine the credibility of such organisations as PETA by putting up "joke" sites.

The word "Joke" is perhaps misleading, as these sites are never amusing, and always harmful to the poor, defenceless children who view them unsupervised while their hard-working single mothers are out trying to earn an honest wage.

JorG is a new kind of page; we know who's for real and who's not, but we ignore their cries for attention. Right here, on this page, we expose the frauds, and the real criminals, that make life online so hazardous.

We know you won't enjoy these sites, but perhaps knowing who's for real and who isn't will help you decide which cause to start a chain letter about this week.

If you know of a site whose veracity is in doubt, tell us.

Genuine

Bonsai Kitten
Probably the most notorious animal rights abuser on the Internet. A brief period of everybody thinking it was a joke has ended since the FBI investigation which revealed an extensive kitten-mutilation network stretching from New York to California.. and beyond into the great unknown. Terrifying stuff.
Black People Love Us
Patronising racism at its very worst. These bigots should be wiped from the face of the Earth.
Asian Prince
Wo-Hen Nankan is indeed real. In fact, we listen to his latest album all the time in the JorG offices. Some people discredited the site on grounds of being too over the top (we call it exuberance) but were really just scared of people who aren't afraid to express themselves. Go Wo-Hen!
Bum Rape Island
Although cleverly disguised with white-out, images from this site correlate directly with photos recovered from POW camp escapees in Japan. A disturbing view into the heart of the hardship of WWII, and not the sort of site you would want your children to see.
Real Ultimate Power
Not only is this site genuine, but the author is a bona fide black belt. We sent a reporter around to his house and he ended up in hospital for several hours with Kendo-bat splinters under his fingernails.
"I rule"
This good-for-nothing blagguard was busted by the FBI shortly after a tip-off from us. If allowed to continue in his sick crusade against children's self-expression, he could have stunted the emotional development of an entire generation of Americans, who might have been left unable to, like, express themselves.
Furniture Porn
Some people will have copulatory fantasies about anything. We have filed to have this site removed before children are corrupted into having similar delusions about their parents' furniture.
Real Hamster
The large price tag didn't put off the customers of this small sex-toy manufacturer. Disgusting.

Jest

Microsoft
Global conglomerate that seeks to break anti-trust laws, spy on your computer and stop you from pirating all that cool software you'd never afford to buy legitimately in a million years? Yes, of course. If you thought this one was real, go and sit in the corner.
Worth 1000
A very subtle one, this; almost a "jest squared". At first glance the images of animal cruelty and "sports" that endanger lives are shocking. Then comes the "realisation" that all the images are faked. Not so. After extensive investigation, our disturbing conclusion was that every image on this site is very, very real.
Playboy
Our female staff were hugely relieved to discover that the entire Playboy empire is just a big joke. Loveable rascal Hugh Hefner said, "I just wanted to see if people would swallow it. Nobody's that sexist," before dashing off to pretend to have a jacuzzi with six topless models.
UN Development Programme
Starving children, millions jobless, war, drought.. At times, the UNDP website made disturbing reading for many. However, thankfully, it turns out that some interns at the UN invented the UNDP for a laugh and the third world doesn't really exist. I hope you can all sleep more comfortably tonight, knowing that the starving millions about whom you cared so deeply, aren't really there.
