I hate MOBILE SITES!!!

A friend sends me a site from his phone. It's a mobile site.  You try to find full-site to see it properly and it refuses to go to the full site, there stuff's broken because it's an untested path.
 There is no way to get from the mobile version of the article to the normal version without searching in Google for it. So you can't post it on Facebook or anything as the Mobile URL for the article.

Worse yet it the Mobile site it horrible on my android which can display the full site just find, but some sites detect it's android and refuse to deliver working content only the broken crippled content.


Here is an example:
