Big Head Squirrel Feeder

Laughing Squid:

If you get a Big Head Squirrel Feeder, you’ll be able to feed and humiliate squirrels at the same time. Hang this vinyl 5-1/2″ x 8″ Big Head Squirrel Feeder in front of a window or near a porch, fill it with something squirrels like to eat and when they stick their head up there, the squirrel looks like he has a hilariously huge head with a goofy smile.

So close to setting that picture as my iPhone wallpaper.

If PHP Were British

Before:

switch ($variable) {
    case $option1:
        //Code here
        break;
    case $option2:
        //Code here
        break;
    default:
        //Code here
        break;
}

After:

what_about (£variable) {
    perhaps £possibility:
        //Code here
        splendid;
    perhaps £other_possibility:
        //Code here
        splendid;
    on_the_off_chance:
        //Code here
        splendid;
}

Chipper!

LOLMAO

You might have already seen this, since mrbrown linked to it on Twitter. Posting on the blog for posterity anyway:

Lolcat9dce5677436502d890d6d7281964d0c7b8ffcb58

It’s been a lifelong* ambition of mine to get a LOLcat picture published**, but this will have to do for now.

* Mild exaggeration.

** This may or may not have influenced how much I supported Joey when she adopted our ridiculous cat. Shh, don’t tell her.

Zero Punctuation reviews Minecraft

There is no game reviewer I trust more than ZP. He’s especially good in this one, but pardon the Flash video (yes, again with Flash, sigh).

I went and bought Minecraft shortly after watching this review (also after hearing countless other positive reviews on Twitter). Thankfully, I’m not addicted… yet. I hope I didn’t just ruin my future by quitting my job and then immediately buying an awfully addictive game.

(Side note: 1 million purchases of an independent game! Wow.)

So my facial image is too big, and they want me to “show more shoulder” before my photo will be “acceptable”? Awesome. This was my reply.
