Wild and Weird

Today I am going to focus on two of my favorite sites. They are both from bloggers like myself. The first one is Dark Roasted Blend. This is a very popular blog with over 25,000 subscribers. My goal in this blog is to bring you, the reader, all of the weird and wonderful things on the net and this site has a huge collection. Today I am going to focus on the Weird section of the site. From wild weather to weird wearables, this site dsplays a myriad of unusual things.
"
The other blog that I am going to point you to is a little bit more "morbid". It is called Morbid Anatomy and its tag states "Surveying the Interstices of Art and Medicine, Death and Culture." Wonderful photos and in-depth information about the authors and subjects or the narratives will either have you rapt with attention or praying to the porcelain god. Either way, this site will catch your interest and the images will stay with you for a long while.

Really quick post today. I have found two weird sites for you enjoyment.
I know that at one time or the other we have all thought "I wonder what would happen if I put this in the microwave." From ketchup packets to gelatin cups, even a footbal have gone into the microwave over at Micromaniac. They even show you time lapse video for those people who do not want to wait.

The second location we will look at can be compared to sex. It can be fun alone, but even more enjoying with a group of friends. Let me welcome you to "Pick The Perp" The game is really simple. You are shown mug shots of five people. You are then given a crime that one of these people were convicted of such as Sexual Battery. Your job is to pick the person who you think committed the crime. The site keeps track of correct and incorrect guesses so you can try to achieve a high score. My best is 31/100 = 31%. I challenge you to do better.

Look What I Found

While transferring files and rewriting HTML code (a pain in the A$$), I figured that my readers might get a little bit angry for not posting anything new in a couple of days. Well, to appease the masses: Top Tips

Moving to a New Domain

Good Morning! I apologize for not updating this blog in a more timely manner, but I have been a little busy. I now have a new domain at http://www.stealthmayhem.com and have been busy designing layouts and such for the past week. Rest assured that this blog will continue at both places. I look forward to your comments on the new layout and will submit more this weekend.

Something to Talk About

Have you ever been in a conversation and are at loss for what to say next. Or how about when your best friend calls you and says that his girlfriend just dumped him. Well I have found a site that has many famous quotations suitable for any occasion. It is called Quotegarden. Not only is this site good for making people feel better, it is good for making others think you are smarter than what you really are. Everybody knows that jackass who has a quote for every occasion. Don't be that guy.

The second site of the day is called Antipode Map. The premise behind this site is simple. If you choose any spot on Earth, it will show you the corresponding spot on the other side of the planet. A straight line straight through the exact center of the earth. I did not know that the antipode to my location is actually in the middle of the ocean on the western side of Australia.

Check out both of these sites. I'm pretty sure that you will find them interesting. If you don't like them, it is not a big deal. I will post different sites later on. Until I post again...............

Mind Tricks

Today I stumbled across a mind trick. A mind trick is something that is hard to explain. Nobody knows why they work, they just do. One of the best examples that I have found is located at Wilk4.com It asks you to repeatedly answer simple math questions and then....... Well you have to see for yourself. You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

One of the greatest mind tricks that I have found are actually optical illusions. The best examples, IMO, or by M.C. Escher. Escher has designed the most ridiculous optical illusions ever created. These are some of the greatest "Mind Tricks" ever experienced.
