It's an oldie, but a goodie: The Post Secret. They made a book out of it a while back, but I think the blog is the best — people from all over the world send their deepest, darkest secrets on postcards (and sometimes in video form) to the Post Secret, and its webmasters post them online. Postcards range from the deeply personal (a pic of Wonder Woman with the text "I feel the need to be perfect in every way so my mother doesn't regret not having an abortion") to the humorous and artistic (a '70s-style T&A shot with the text "I fantasize about having more than two breasts.") It's my favorite way to lose my faith in people and have it renewed all in about five minutes.
