 | Mickey Mouse attempts suicide
It turns out that Disney comics were a lot darker than I remember them to be. Here's a series of comic strips where Mickey Mouse continuously tries to off himself after things go sour with Minnie Mouse. Personally, I could never understand what all the fuss was about when it came to Minnie. Sure, she's an attractive mouse, but Britney the Chippette was a lot cuter and would've probably appreciated Mickey far more. | |
 | pa-doink
pa-doink is the latest in Off the Wall's illustrious history of Internet-based games that don't suck. In pa-doink, all you really have to do is navigate a ball from point A to point B. As usual, this is incredibly easy at first, before getting annoyingly difficult later on, which means that it's about the same as every other game you've played online. It's also fun to say "pa-doink." Just try it. | |
 | The 7 greatest Home Shopping Channel screw-ups
I like watching the Home Shopping Channel, even though I've never bought anything from. It's just entertaining to watch the hosts get so excited about a myriad of crummy products. There's just nothing more comical than very fake enthusiasm. On this site, however, we get to watch HSC clips where things go horribly wrong. So I guess there is something funnier than fake enthusiasm. | |
 | Type City
Type City is straight-up cool, and a good example of how some people manage to turn Internet content into a true art form. Explore Type City with your arrow keys, and prepare to be dazzled by an entire city made exclusively of different fonts. The music is relaxing, and the whole thing smacks of uniquenes. This could be the only city cooler than Paris. | |
 | 10 nostalgic snack foods
The only thing that inspires more nostalgia in me than 1980s TV has to be old snack foods. Personally, I'll never get over the loss of Cherry Coke in Canada, and not a day goes by when I don't think about it. This page has other snacks that you've probably forgotten that you loved, and you'll come away feeling the same emptiness I feel every time I crave a Cherry Coke. Oh God, it still hurts. | |
