LiveMeme

LiveMeme is a pretty awesome site dedicated to servicing its viewers with only the highest quality of that particular sub-category of meme that even the most cyberly-challenged of individuals seem to grab any old google image without a loss of composure or close family members and just give it a go; the advice meme. Advice memes have been dragged into a sea of over-saturation and degradation over recent years and LiveMeme, in my opinion (which is more critical than overly masculine father meeting his newly-outed daughter’s first girlfriend), fights back with epic colours, flashy glows and moving jpegs (which is nothing less than witchcraft).

A couple favoured categories of mine are:

Socially Awkward Awesome Penguin/Socially Awesome Awkward Penguin/Socially Ambivalent Penguin

Lame Pun Coon

Forever Resentful Mother

5 Reasons Bowser is the Most Successful Video Game Character

Semi-professional list-makers of all things discernible, Cracked.com categorically set out to prove that the famous guardian of the Mushroom Kingdom that children across the years have come to love and idolise as the unassuming hero, bringer of joy and more importantly good friend, is actually the loser. The loser to the tyrant, the bully, the big bad wolf to your terminal hospital bed-ridden grandma. Can it be true? Can the moustached crusader actually be, in some ways, weaker than his turtle-like nemesis? Click the portrait to the right and judge for yourself?

And for the literary challenged-ites/can’t-be-bothered-onians, Cracked also re-visited the premise through the almost lost art of internet sketch…and a fine little sketch it is.

April Fools 2012

And as the midnight chimes of April 2nd fades away, we can safely say that that time of year where your old trusted companion, Mr. The Internet, returns to their right, honourable, sneakily-double-charging-your-credit-card self and we can lay to rest the lies and childish acts of yesterday. Another April Fools Day has come and gone. So on this holiday of the joker, I enjoyed venturing through my usual haunts of the world wide web like a middle age man on his elven princess account, wandering around the taverns of Azeroth looking for a good time. Any shocking news, unexpected reveals or stunt in general I wanted to see and share. Well, only the really good ones.

Assassin’s Creed for Kinect

Most clearly and April Fool for the salient reason that the Kinect is nowhere near as 1-to-1 as that video would have us believe. Though I’m not entirely sure what the most awesome part of the idea is. The idea of it also on the Wii, or your 7 year old sister getting it confused for Dance Central.

10 Things Nobody Warned Me about my Twenties

As a twenty-something year old, not only do I empathize with this, I want to squeeze at its tit and bathe in its milk of truth.

Doctor Quack

When I turned twenty, I was under the impression that life was going to be a party for the next ten years. I was sorely mistaken. You see… I was warned about a couple things: my metabolism will decrease, I’ll get fatter, academic work will get harder, I’ll have to pay taxes; but there are a lot of things no one warned me about.

So I have written this list, projecting my personal experiences onto my fellow twenty-something friends and colleagues who are themselves possibly struggling with the same things I struggle with in this deeply confusing decade we call our twenties.

1. Twenties are the new teens.

People in their thirties often tell me that the thirties are the new twenties, so what does that make us? Well, unfortunately, as if we didn’t already suffer enough in the confusing and disorienting teenage years, we have to do it all…

A Bottle of Harry Partridge Sauce

Animation is a very under appreciated business. It has the power to create riotous laughter, overwhelming sadness and music videos for the Gorillaz. But of course, after your done watching that clip of batman eating a hot dog, you switch back to Deal or No Deal the online game and carry on with your day. So when a skilled animator such as Harry Partridge, comes along with his boundless imagination and his not too overly animated breasts, I’d like to sit down and take notice. Over recent years he’s become a small star online, although how much of that is down to boobs is anyone’s guess. Here are a couple of his creations.

Chuck’s New Tux

The story of a man called Chuck, just a tad low on his luck. He’d wished he’d never paid the bucks, after what happens to his tux.
