McSweeney's
Timothy McSweeney's Internet Tendency -- Jen plugged it in her blog previously, and I'm doing the same because it is hands down gut-busting funny. Below is one of their lists.

Uh, John, I don't get it.
Well, Mom, "Here we Have Idaho" does not sound like the title of a song that would contain an enthusiastic endorsement of Idaho, or a song that would made Idaho-eons proud of their great state and cause them to get all misty-eyed - it just says "Here, we have Idaho."
So the OTHER (made up) song titles on the list try to evoke a similar apathy or lack of enthusiasm for the state in question:
"Well, if You Insist, Then I Guess I'll Take Indiana"
Do you get it now?
