I am not the author, but I am friends with the people who run the site. You are right, I did ask for feedback and thank you what you are saying makes a lot of sense. I'm going to summarize the feedback and let them know.
I will say this though, it is a complete joke, I wouldn't take it at face value or too seriously because they don't take the site seriously. It started out as a couple of inside jokes amongst friends and then turned into the current blog.
but like I said, great feedback!

Inside jokes are usually only funny to those on the inside, other wise, not funny.

Don't really see the connection of inside jokes and a blog existing for less than six weeks here, but it isn't as if I'm your target audience.
I'm really amazed ElephantWalk and I agree on something.

I'm not "taking it seriously" - I'm literally telling you why it's not funny. Because it's not. Like, maybe you're the funniest guys in your corner of the student union . . . but the site is not funny. At all. It needs major, major work to not suck. Kind of like that woman whose face was eaten by the ape. That much work.

FTW.
OP: I spent a few minutes looking at it and I agree with the feedback that has been offered so far. The writing is weak. The posts don't flow. It's not even remotely funny. You (or your friends, or whomever is responsible for it...) totally need to take this idea back to the drawing board if it's truly a site you want to share with others, because it doesn't work at all right now. I'm not trying to be harsh but it just needs an awful lot of work.

LOL
It definitely reads like a bunch of college students sitting around making jokes that THEY find funny. We all have a group of friends who get our tone and jokes. That does not make us all comics.
Since you released these "jokes" for public consumption, it is pretty clear that this is the corniest thing I've read in a very long time. I have no advice because it is just so corny that letting go and settling with the FAIL is a tremendous idea. SaaaaaVe yourrrrrrselllllllfffffffff *echo echo*
