This is most amusing. A link to one of their papers: http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/scigen/rooter.pdf

It really looks like a real CS sorta paper. If you actually spend a second to read it, at first it seems like most dense science reading, but then slowly you realize its just random babble.

The paper I linked even got accepted to a conference. Their grad student salaries couldn't afford it, but they got enough paypal donations to go! Kudos to them.
