Make way for Clegg, Fizz and Kiss Romney ›

Very cool Reuters article about the ‘Romney Family Name Generator’

Whenever eBay or Amazon sellers send me follow-up e-mails asking for me to leave them a positive rating, I feel like a diabolical aristocrat throwing a crust of bread to a peasant who stole me a valuable map.
Amazing.

The Groupon Guide to: Forgotten Video Games As more and more video games are rebooted, sequeled, and adapted into hit procedural dramas and breakfast pastries, some 8-bit classics have fallen by the wayside. What are some classic video games you forgot to remember? • Battle Brothers (ActivoVision, 1989): In this high-octane punch ‘em up, two rad brothers (Clint and Vortex) must survive a concrete gauntlet in order to rescue the president’s stolen bike. Forgotten Fact: In Battle Brothers, both players could accidentally cause damage to each other, resulting in exciting real-life fistfights between real-life brothers. • Swords & Squares (Dønderhuff ElectroPublishing, 1981): This brain-enhancing game of medieval strategy pits dueling royal courts against each other, and bestows players with a dot-matrix certificate at the end that assigns performance-based ranks, ranging from Knight of the Round to Horsepox Survivor. Forgotten Fact: Game is essentially chess. • Olympics® ‘87! (Pixellius, 1986): You play as Torcho®, the Olympic Torch®, as he is passed hand-to-hand between different athletes on his globetrotting journey. Don’t tip over and set their sweat-slicked hair ablaze! Forgotten Fact: Not affiliated with the Olympics in any way, Olympics® ‘87 holds the record for video game most frequently mentioned in court transcripts. Originally ran on Groupon.com, 1.25.12

Someone made a screen capture of this Twitter joke I made and it blew up as a self-fulfilling Tumblr prophecy, of which I am now a part. The Internet continues to be the Internet.
