This is embarassing to do, but I need help. I entered a contest for an online game called Epic Pet Wars. They set up a design a pet contest through a third party fansite, and so i put up a couple entries.
One of them qualified for the finals, and here he is:
BUBBLOR!
Anyway, if you get time please go to the site and vote for me! Epic Pet War Room I am losing second place to a really awful entry (given up on overtaking first) and the intense shame might ruin my life forever. So vote!
Srsly I'll hook you up with drawings for votes! Whatever... Not above selling out here.
Yesterday i dined on the company dollar, and was thusly able to order dessert. Half my dessert i kept so that i could eat it today. WELL i go into the fridge and what is missing? My dessert. I found the "evidence" in the garbage meaning it was eaten this morning RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE. I know someone didn't throw it out because there was a fork with key lime pie residue on it and most of the pie was gone.
Was practicing off some tutorial with PS, and made this wallpaper for my computer. (not that anyone has ever taken me up on the offer, but let me know if you want a copy. have high-res version avail)
What they found was that there is little race/ethnicity-based differences in how youth perceive CS but there are HUGE gender based differences in perception.
While 67% of all boys rated computer science as a "very good" or "good" career choice, only 9% of girls rated it "very good" and 17% as "good."

Not sure how many of you were subject to this back in school, but man this video takes me back. Probably the best anti-piracy ad ever made. The veritable... "Don't Copy That Floppy". Featuring a hackneyed MC Hammer, incredible rhymes and an insanely high production budget this thing will blow you out of the freaking water.
My favorite outlandish claim, which i remember being suspect of even as a youth...
"one leads to another then ten then more. then no one buys any discs from the store so no one gets paid, and they can't make more. the posse breaks up and they close all the stores." (this one is repeated even more outlandishly shortly thereafter predicting the end of the Computer Age!!!!)
Ok maybe one more... "Let me break this down for you... No Carmen San Diego. No more Oregon Trail... Tetris and the others they are all going to fail!"
I am almost 100% sure this informed the Simpsons writers who came up with MC Caution and the Safety Crew.
Also... WTF they are making another one?? DCT2 Trailer
I find it hard to believe that trailer link above is actually real. Anyway video was found courtesy of the Iron Will Blog by fantastic illustrator Vasilis Lolos.
I have just figured out how to revitalize every ailing American industry... impose Canon's tyrannical employee behavior policies.
RECESSION/DEPRESSION/FINANCAPOCALYPSE OVER!
Employees are barred from sitting, and have to walk a certain pace in halls or alarms go off warning them of their own laziness and ineptitude at being efficient while walking.
