Roxik

Here's a really cool flash toy. No purpose past just looking cool and being mildly interactive, I believe. Doesn't stop it from being really cool.

Slow motion high FPS compilation

This is a very cool compliation of things happening in extremely slow motion. Water balloons explode, things get shot with bullets and people get slapped in the face. Very cool.

How to Enjoy Sushi

It's a comprehensive discussion of how to eat Sushi. It's also hilariously facetious. Don't take it seriously, but watch it and laugh. Thanks to Zensho, for the link.

Cute with Chris


This is another video podcast in which Chris talks about cute things. These mostly come in the forms of pets dressed in different costumes and animals in need of rescue from the shelter. Though the show seems like it would be limited to one joke, Chris finds new and inventive ways to show the critters, and sometimes a few people.

Merry Christmas Triplepost

So I've decided to line up a triple shot of Christmas happiness for the holiday. First, something special from me: A Christmas card I illustrated personally. And yes, the joke on the t-shirt is a barely-changed version of something funny I saw in a Jhonen Vasquez comic. Hope that's not a problem for you. (No lawsuits, please, as I don't have any money).
Christmas Card

Secondly, some people don't have the money to put up a traditional Christmas tree. Others feel that while it's nice and all to have a regular tree, Christmas is a good opportunity to make something new. Here are some good do-it-yourself Christmas "trees."
DIY Christmas Tree Photos

And Finally, one of the best Christmas stories ever told. I read this aloud to some friends last year and couldn't get all the way through it because I was crying too hard. Crying with laughter! The author is, of course, the esteemed Martin Sargent.

You Don't Know Jack

One of my favorite party games every came in the 90's in the form of You Don't Know Jack!. I spent many, many hours laughing and playing those games alongside my childhood friends. This is one of the few games where I saw it and then immediately went out to buy my own copy of every single edition out at the time. Now they're back with a web game. Play 'Dis or Dat' on the site. The Flash does a great job of emulating the old look and feel of the game.

Busy Airport


This is a great composite picture of airplanes taking off from an airport. It's from some sort of fine art show. There's more details on the site, but I just like the picture.

Stuff on my Cat

This one isn't especially new, but it's great. The title is Stuff on my Cat. That's pretty self-explanitory. If you still need more incentive, the tagline is "Stuff + Cats = Awesome". There's really no more I can say except that it's driven by user uploads. Lots of people love putting stuff on their cats. Special thanks to the Honorable Reverend Juice for this link.

Exploding Dog

If you send this guy a title, he will make a drawing based on it. It's mostly stick figures, and really nice colors. Also, his ideas are very creative. I really enjoy checking out his updates. Sometimes he also does drawings by mail and if you catch him at the right time with a self-addressed stamped envelope he might send you a hard copy of a drawing.

Liberated Films

This is a site that is dedicated to putting independent films on the internet for us to watch for free. The vids are small and in flash players, but it's still good. There are preroll ads but they're short.
