Here's an interesting blog: The Wikipedia Knowledge Dump. The editor posts summaries of articles that are about to be removed from Wikipedia for notability problems or just being too bizarre for words. There are entries like Penguins in Popular Culture, the sideways bike, and the Extra-Terrestrial Exposure Law. Some are certainly just oddities, like the 100 Greatest Villains, as listed in Wizard magazine's issue 177. And then there's Elizabeth Kucinich, not particularly noteworthy but certainly a charmer.
