A failed attempt at a Wikipedia parody that is actually a cover for a non-stop bitching and whining fest, in which it's users insult things for simply being popular to give off the illusion of being iconoclastic or edgy.
For every entry that may actually be funny, there are at least five that are simply a twenty year old loser coming up with sentences to fit the word faggotry into while "sticking it" to some sub-culture of people no one in their right minds gives two shits about.
Tips for the budding ED writer:
Believe that the word "lulz" is some magical incantation that successfully shields you from potential scrutiny. Apparently when you do everything that your site condemns, you are no longer a neckbeard basement dweller, obsessed loser if you write for ED and use "I did it for teh lulz" as an opening disclaimer.
Each entry should read like the World's Angriest Mad Lib. Take X (the subject that will garner the most "look at me, I need attention because no one loves me" points) then start with a stupid origin ripped from the previous 500 entries. Swear a lot. Link to no less than 400 other entries, 200 of which should be their lame inside jokes/memes that are somehow less retarded than everyone else's. Annie may! Betty Sue! 100 years ago! *wipes tear* Pure comedy gold.
Basically just copy and past a previous entry, take out the subject key words, add a few "faggotry's" and cock/gay/nigger/Jew/Nazi/rape jokes to it and call it a day. That way, you can rest assured knowing you pissed off some random people for no real reason.
When people get upset, pretend that no one is supposed to take it seriously (at least, not more seriously than you do) and that you know what parody or satire looks like. Also stand by the false assumption that you are funny and that anyone who simply finds the complete reliance on the same five stale jokes lame doesn't have a sense of humor. Also "funny" means biting everyone else's writing style to fit in.
You can be offensive and funny. Comedians do it all the time. However, there is a reason most of the ED writers are on ED. They just aren't funny.

Encyclopedia Dramatica is a nerd-run hate site disguised as a satirical Wikipedia but anyone with a half a brain can see through that paper thin pretense.

A wiki website for immature horny teenagers/adults/old men who have nothing better to do but bash things people like for the 'lulz'. The articles mostly consists of 'gay', 'fag', racism, stereotypes, porn, and people. They claim it's satire when they don't know what real satire is. Obviously someone needs to get off the computer.
Oh mah gawdz. I don't like this person so I better make an article about him on Encyclopedia Dramatica for being such a fag!

The worst website on the Internet.
It is full of racist, anti-Semitic, off-putting, homophobic, sexist, and crass articles that are made by fucktards who are hated by their entire school, no make that country. They stoop so low to have male anatomy and pornographic material scattered around the wiki. Anyone who thinks it's funny should have their head checked. It beats YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter as the most useless and most inappropriate website on Earth. To reiterate, It is the worst website ever.

Person 1: Did you hear about Encyclopedia Dramatica?
Person 2: Yeah, my son stumbled across some articles when he was surfing the internet. He was offended that the website thinks it has liberty to use as many homophobic words and epithets against Jewish people. Now he's afraid to use the internet except to check his email!
Person 1: I heard the entire country of Australia blocked the site because it was very offensive to Aborigines.
Person 2: My son wanted to have therapy to get rid of the emotional distress that piece of shit put him in!
Person 1: Why can't our country be as smart as Australia?
Person 2: We let shit like Encyclopedia Dramatica exist on the Internet. No wonder why the world hates us.

A moronic, hateful Wikipedia-style site revolving around memes, porn, and how every other site on the internet is 'gay' and/or 'unfunny'.
Anyone can edit ED, though it seems meaningless as the articles seem like they've all been written by a 13-year-old in a permanent state of nerd rage, sort of like someone trying to be like someone trying to be like Charlie Brooker. Every single article is apparently required to include 'fucktard' or 'faggotry' (preferrably both), repeated as many times as possible.
ED is also CONTROVERSIAL; as it seems these wannabes have thought of this: "Omg! Racism and homophobia will get me noticed! It's so NONCONFORMIST!"
At the present time, there seems to be only one article in Encyclopedia Dramatica that's somewhat accurate - the article for My Immortal, by Tara Gilesbie.
(But to be fair, flaming IS encouraged on that!)

Encyclopedia Dramatica articles are just a load of insults stringed together in a sad attempt to sound funny.

A website designed for internet thugs. Typically Encyclopedia Dramatica is a website for people who watch way to many Youtube videos and love extremely overweight males with stubby penis's, as they spend time googling for these pictures just to insult someone over the internet (where their safe) so that they can add to their E-Thuging reputation and eventually become a CERTIFIED GANGSTER.
They also enjoy pictures of bukkake's and cum on male's faces.

"I'm not going to visit Encyclopedia Dramatica because I'm tired of seeing pictures of fat dudes with short, stubby cocks."

A website claiming to be satirical, but in fact it is just used by fourteen year old losers to insult anything they dislike.
Teenage boy - "I use encyclopedia dramatica to spread hate speech about everything, but it's ok because I do it for the lulz!!!!"
