This is better than it looks at first! You can click on the headlines and there are full articles, or click Generate New at the top to make your own. I think the best I've found so far is 25 Things Mathematicians Should Be Allowed To Complain About. It is full of small truths, including the brilliant sentence "She succeeded her father as input". It also features Lunchables-flavoured doughnuts and a creepily-recurring quivery-eyed cartoon. No Nobel Prize, when you’ve poured milk into a movie to study the Texas thunderstorms?

As someone whose job has a lot of procedural generation of text involved, I feel like a kid on a tricycle watching a Ferrari vroom past.
It seems to be down again so I can't explore further :/
