Every which way is still cute

This blog's sole reason for existence is to post pictures of dogs that were photographed upside down. All hail the upside down dogs blog.

UPSIDE DOWN DOGS!

Just in time for Thanksgiving!

This is a highly addictive turkey shoot game that is made even more awesome with the addition of VIRTUAL ALCOHOLISM. You can choose what level of drunkenness you would like to be before they give you a gun. Now that's class.

Make Your Own Muppet!

And then have it actually exist in reality!! Click on the link below that says "I WANNA MUPPET" to go to a website where you can create a muppet of your choice and have it shipped to your home. I must confess, one of my biggest dreams in life is to be hugged by a muppet. This sounds like a pretty sweet opportunity.

I WANNA MUPPET!

Downloadable Diversions!

This website offers a bunch of downloadable programs to add distractions to your monitor. One choice creates little sheep that will interact with each other randomly. Another creates a cat that will hunt your cursor. Jennifer has downloaded the sheep before without incident, but please use your own discretion. Now go count some adorable, playful sheep!!

SHEEP!

Superman's time suck

Ever wished you could just float above the Earth and let all the information just come to your perfect ears? Well now you can peep on the world from your monitor and enjoy constant, ever-changing information with robotically-voiced updates. See how many people are stuck in an elevator RIGHT NOW. See how much people are talking about hockey vs how much they're talking about basketball RIGHT NOW. See how many seconds remain until "doughnut day". Check out what the most popular video is on youtube, and what the most popular word is that is being used in chats.

Maybe eventually this will tell you where a crime is happening so you can squeeze into your tights and cape and beat Superman to the punch.

I wish my lunches looked this nice in elementary school.


In this blog, a mom shows off the brown paper lunch bags she awesomely illustrates for her children's lunches.

Fun with microwaves



In case you're bored with using the microwave for its pedestrian purpose of warming up food, find out what else you can do (namely, what you can blow up) with microwaves.

(via Serious Eats.)

Must check dentist's lobby during my next checkup to see if they still have copies


I feel that every dentist's and doctor's office in America had copies of Highlights, that lovely little magazine that helped occupy the often interminable wait. The only bad thing about the magazine would be when some little turd before you found all the Hidden Pictures and circled them. This website allows you to read other memories people have about Highlights, as well as submitting your own. There's even an quiz so you can find out if you're more like Goofus or Gallant.

I was a Highlights Kid!

A webseries from McG

Did you like "The O.C.?" Did you care for McG's feature versions of the "Charlie's Angels?" Well, even if you didn't, this webseries, created my McG with Warner Bros and MySpace a few months back, is a lot of fun because it's got a little bit of the horror genre thrown in. A sorority soap with a horror slant? Definitely sounds like more fun than doing my work.

Don't look at this site if you have an affinity for junk food.


Cheeze-its or Cheese Nips? Twizzlers or Red Vines? Spaghettios or Spaghetti Rings? Read this blog to find out whether the original product or the "lesser version" is better.

(By the way: Twizzlers FTW.)
