Time Killers For The Evening
I’ve finally got around to creating a “Games” category on this site (adding a “Videos” category next), and will be trying to move old entries into the category as time allows.
Meanwhile, here’s something for the category:
- Civiballs 2, a sequel to a game I posted a while back.
- Upgrade Complete is a silly game where the entire goal is to make the game functional.
- Spelunky is a frustratingly challenging game for Windows that will kill off many hours/days/weeks if you let it.
Enjoy!
Somebody Might Find This Useful
I’m not a drinker, but you have to be impressed with the amount of work it takes to make a kegerator. If you really feel like pimping it out, you can give it some flames.
Movie Coming To Britain: Attack of the Baked Goods
Only the Brits could have startling stats like this:
Oh crumbs – it seems up to half of all Britons have been injured… by a humble biscuit.
Flying fragments and daredevil dunking in scalding tea have all led to millions suffering at the hands of their favourite snack, according to fun research.
Among the more unusual – and daft – injuries are a man who poked himself in the eye with a biscuit and people who have fallen off chairs while reaching for a tea-time treat.
No, I’m Not Your Son
Parents really shouldn’t be allowed on Facebook, as sometimes they just don’t know better.
Why I’m A Geek and Not A Nerd, Dweeb, or Dork
Finally, a graph that explains it all perfectly:
So you can call me geek, and I accept it as a compliment. But call me nerd, dork, or dweeb, and them’s fighting words.
Time Killer For The Day
Canabalt is only controlled by one button, but its low-res graphics and great music make it really fun to play.
I made it 2800 meters on my first try. How’d you do?
Everything Is Better With Christopher Walken
This needs more cowbell, but this video is still hilarious as I’ve never seen Walken as a dancer:
Convertible Stroller/Bike Trailer and Train Table for Sale
This is for the folks that have kids out there (and I know there are a few of you). Our kids are getting too old for some of this stuff, so it’s time to get rid of it.
We have a convertible two-child bike trailer/stroller. It’s in great shape, still has all parts, and we paid well more than the $80 we’re asking for it. It looks just like this, but in red.
Also, we have a big ol’ sturdy train table with two train sets. These are those wooden train sets that you see at some of the toy stores. The full craigslist ad (with pictures) is over here. It’s a really solid table, with two large drawers, and is barely used as well. Could probably double as an ugly coffee table. $195 or best offer.
Would love to have this stuff out of my utility room so I can move around in there again, so make me an offer! Pop me an email using the form on the right of the page.
