bored

Bored. You weren't doing anything else anyway...

How common is your birthday? Using data collected since 1973 to determine how likely it is that you were born on a certain date on the calendar. My own birthday is pretty much right in the middle… yours?

Essay Typer. Enter a subject for your essay, and then keep on typing. Homework is so easy!

Fuck You, Broccoli. A discussion of the more revolting vegetables.

Kick Ass. Click the green button, or drag it into your bookmarks bar to Kick Ass on other sites (including this one). Use your arrow keys to steer, space bar to shoot. You’ll figure it out.

8 Bit Google Maps. I love Google, for lots of reasons, but they’ve outdone themselves with this one.

Least Helpful. A summary of terrible internet reviews. The “gay panic” section is particularly notable.

Literally Unbelievable. Ignorant (and therefore hilarious) responses to fake news stories published by the Onion.

Where The Fuck Should I Go For Drinks? In case you find yourself feeling both thirsty and profane while in an unfamiliar neighbourhood.

Aherk! Need to get something done? Upload an embarrassing or incriminating photo, then give yourself a deadline – if you’re not done in time, Aherk posts the photo to your Facebook. My own goal is to post here three times between now and New Year’s… perhaps you’d like to keep an eye on the Facebook page to see what happens?

Body Surface Area Calculator. A scientific tool that imagines that you’re all smoothed out like a pancake. My body surface area is 2.3 metres squared. Yours?

Men Photographed in Stereotypical Pin-Up Poses. It’s the duck lips that really makes this work, I think. :-m

How A Condom Is Made. Pretty much what I would have guessed, except for the part with the washing machine.

Tunnel To The Other Side Of The Earth. If I were to surface on the exact opposite side of the planet, I’d drown. And it’d take a long time for my corpse to wash up on the Australian coast. How about you?

I’m Not Racist, But… Status updates from racists.

Now I Know. A free daily e-newsletter full of interesting things. Not Twitter or Facebook. Old-fashioned!
