Firefox's Stumble feature brings me many great sites that I need to share with you.
First up is LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD?
It's a strange little flash project that lets you drag George Bush or Tony Blair's face around by the nose. It's oddly amusing for a few minutes.
Throw Paper
Flash game. The object is to get a wad of paper into a wastebin, however the presence of a fan affects what direction you need to throw it in order to get it into the basket. Good for killing time.
Fly Guy
Funny for the sheer weirdness of it.
Basically, you're Fly Guy. You can fly. Adn when you do, there are various things you can encounter in the sky, including but not limited to, a copy machine, a chair with wings (that promptly serves you tea), a guru who gives fortune cookiesque advice, and a small child holding a balloon (and if you fly through it, it pops and enables the kid to become Superman). Also a great time killer.
TrueMajority
This site makes me happy.
It explains the federal budget and the problems with it...by using OREOS, and an entertaining flash movie, but it also gets the message across. A good stop if you don't know anything at all about politics but wish you did.
Declaration of Revocation by John Cleese
Undeniably one of the most humorous things I have ever received in my inbox, and now here it is again in a website form.
The Declaration details England's taking over of the United States due to electing a crap president and all of the things that we have been doing wrong.
3. You should learn to distinguish the English and Australian accents. It really isn't that hard. English accents are not limited to cockney, upper-class twit or Mancunian (Daphne in Frasier). You will also have to learn how to understand regional accents --- Scottish dramas such as "Taggart" will no longer be broadcast with subtitles. While we're talking about regions, you must learn that there is no such place as Devonshire in England. The name of the county is "Devon." If you persist in calling it Devonshire, all American States will become "shires" e.g. Texasshire, Floridashire, Louisianashire.' ACLU - Pizza
Rather distressing, really. Highlights the creepiness of government privacy invasion using a flash animation in which a man orders a pizza and instantly the pizza place has all of his library books, recent purchases, and medical records on file. Somewhat like Big Brother, interesting to check out if you're paranoid and need another reason to loathe the advancements in government. |
