“This is one of the most thoroughly thought out, most functional web experiences I have ever had"?

It's right there in the front-page testimonials. And yet it's not something any normal person would actually say.

I STRONGLY suspect Russ made it up. Either that, or he said it himself. Probably back in the distant past, when he was still coding the site, before it went live. He probably even said it out loud. Then he probably wrote it down for future use, punched the air, and went back to his coding.

(In my head, this takes place in a small flat in Archway at about 1.30am. Russ is wearing two-day old boxer shorts, white socks, and some sort of grubby grey t-shirt. There is a cat in the room, and a cold mug of tea with scum on the top.)

He'd be awfully good at porn scripts, don't you think?

I like how this testimonial changes depending on what site you use:

“I had been looking for a very good online chess site and I am thankful I found [Enter name of whichever site you use: TFC, RHP, CAW, PTIG, etc.]"

Can this even be called a quote?
