Life Satisfaction Vs. Age: Geeks Vs. Regular People

I mean, awesome if it’s true, I just know I’ve been on the steady downhill since I was six. I’m talking below the x-axis downhill. But maybe it’s because I’m not so much a nerd or regular person, but something else entirely. “A loser with no future?” *tapping finger to nose* Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Thanks to Sinny76 and bobo, who are so satisfied with life they can barely contain themselves. Oh great, my favorite kind of people.

How People In Science See Each Other Chart

Note: Slightly larger version HERE . This is small chart showing how different people in science view themselves and each other. Me? I imagine everybody wearing lab coats with taped glasses and pocket protectors. I guess you could call me oldschool. “Or Shadow Reacharound the Knob Ninja.” Um, no. “Spermbeard the Penis Pirate?” Yeah , I’d still prefer oldschool. Creator’s Website via How People In Science See Each Other [buzzfeed] Thanks to Georgia, who sees everyone as a peach or peanut.

All The Original Pokémon Characters Named By Somebody Who Isn’t Really Sure

Note: This chart was cut so you could read it, click HERE for all 151 (despite the title saying 150). This is a chart allegedly depicting the names a boyfriend gave in response to his girlfriend after to name all the original Pokmons by picture alone. So yeah, that’s what this is supposed to be. Of course it could be some kind of secret code I’m supposed to get high and stay up all night trying to crack but that would be crazy talk and if there’s one thing I can’t stand it’s — holy shit, patterns are forming right before my eyes. Fetch my pipe. Pokemon for the Layman [unrealitymag] Thanks to Joseph, who agrees the first person to catch something should have the right to name it. *ahem* Genital fungus. Help me collect ‘em all or whatever on Faceybooks and Tweeter

Every Role Playing Game Rolled(!) Into One

Note: You’re not gonna have much fun playing it at this size, click HERE to see the thing in full-res and start making decisions! This is a flowchart you can use to “play” every computer RPG all smushed into one. I tried it a couple times but kept getting stuck in the “enter your name” circle. These games can be so tricky! If you’ve played a lot of role-playing games, you know that the stories blend together after a while. A plot twist or character death might have been shocking the first time, but after seeing the cookie-cutter scenarios repeated in an endless stream of titles, you feel like you’re just playing the same game over and over. Well, we have the solution. Instead of shelling out for the next big Japanese RPG, just go through our handy flow chart. You’ll save money and time while getting the exact same experience! Well — did you win? Congratulations! Pfft, and your parents said you were a born loser . I knew you had it in you! What exactly I don’t know, but I suspect an alien’s seed . You krinky as a mofo! Every RPG Ever [gamingbolt] Thanks to Belpheegor, who’s actually played every RPG and can attest to most of the ending with him screaming and throwing a controller.

Word Wizardry!: The Stokes-Whibley Natural Index Of Supernatural Collective Nouns

Note: Full resolution, non-eye-straining version HERE . Have you ever wondered what to call a specific group of something? Not me, I just call everything a group of whatever it is (i.e. “This party is a group of all wieners”). But apparently there are even more specific “collective nouns” (half of which are make-believe) for things that you can use if you’re intelligent . Me? I’m not even gonna pretend. Except I do happen to know a group of crows is called a murder. “Oh shit, tell us more, GW!” And I wish I could, but I’d have to crow-orgy your ass (I think I’m getting the hang of this!). The Stokes-Whibley Natural Index Of Supernatural Collective Nouns [wondermark] via Supernatural Collective Nouns [buzzfeed] Thanks to Mary, who knows what to call everything because she’s a word witch unless she finds the term witch derogatory in which case she’s a spelling shaman. Diction magician? Noun necromancer? SHE’S GUD WITH WERDS.
