FITotD: Weffriddles

Alright, this should really be called the "Maddening and Addictive Internet Thing of the Day."  But it's still fabulous.

Weffriddles.com was a sleeper internet sensation several years ago.  That's like a millennium in internet years.  But it's still around, and it still holds up as a maddening, frustrating, fascinating, and time-consuming puzzle.  That's the very best kind.

In some ways it is the progenitor of A Google A Day; unless you are gifted with a ridiculous amount of trivia knowledge, you're going to have a lot of trouble doing it without a search engine.  (Or, at least, eventually you will.  Many of the puzzles on Weffriddles just require common sense, a warped mind, and banging your head against a metaphorical wall, but several require additional resources.)

I figure that it has been out of the collective internet consciousness for long enough that it might be able to make a serious resurgence.  You never know.  At any rate, you should take a look at it.  Think of it as a gift from me to you; a gift that makes you feel dumb and frustrated, and completely eradicates any free time you ever had.  It's practically like being in a relationship!
