Totally agree with number 36! This might make a great new monster for a custom dungeon.

All of these have been copied from the original Photoshop Disasters blog -- I recognise all of them from there.

I've seen that clip somewhere before...I think it was someone's sig or avatar on a forum or something. Bleh, moving avatars/sigs are so annoying...

Maybe this should be in the "Uncool stuff you've found on the web" thread...

I wonder if these people have actually obtained the rights to sell these games?

Ok, the world is just too weird - internet easter eggs!

Yahoo.com - Click on the dot of the exclamation point of the Yahoo! Make sure the volume is up.
Youtube.com - Pause an active video, then hold down your left arrow key. You are now playing snake.
www.google.com - Type in "Where is Chuck Norris", and hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button.

Hey wow, that's cool - I never knew about the Snake thing in YouTube...I wonder how many people have figured that one out...
And that "Where the Hell is Matt?" thing is cool - I'd never heard of it before but I enjoyed that vid :D.

This doesn't work.

EDIT: Actually, yes it does -- you have to be playing a video using the HTML5 player, rather than the older Flash player. So it'll only work in the newer FireFox, Chrome or Safari. How do you tell which player is being used - easy, the playback bar looks totally different -- it's a fat red line ABOVE the controls with a white 'nub'.

From the place I got it, it said it has to be a flash video and not HTML5

Researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany did an in-depth analysis of 200 healthy males over a period of five years.
Half the volunteers were instructed to ogle at the breasts of women daily, while the rest were told to refrain from doing so.
Yet again we manage to outgerman ourselfes. In the most german way possible.
*from now on we should never go offtit again*

Is it that the ogglers were really getting a longer lifespan, or is it more likely there was more induced stress generated in the non-oglers because they feklt guilty they were lying about the test results?

Either way, it's a win for males everywhere.

a) It's prolonging the lifespan
b) Trying to refrain can reduce your lifespan.

This has been today's mysogyny. Join me tomorrow for some healthy racism against the Greek.

Well it does go hand in hand with the research from several years ago that stated that men who had less/no sex had shorter life spans. Which actually makes sense in a "natures way" kind of manner. Since this happens to other species. Though usually the females of the species. For example, ferret females must be fixed or mated by their third time in heat or they die. So I suppose it's not so far off to have a mans mental state bring on similar results :P

Wonderful attitudes of these everyday heroes, and the imagery is pretty darn sweet too!

For an even better example of this guy's awesomeness, click CV top right, and then select the "not quite as boring" option. :-)
