You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD - Time Waster

You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD
Ever have a few drinks and nod off while watching a DVD? I'm pretty sure almost all of us has been there at one time or another. If you've ever longed for that feeling you get when you groggily wake up to the DVD's menu playing over and over again, head on over to You Fell Asleep Watching a DVD.

You can choose from a selection of DVDs to "fall asleep" in front of, including:
  • Pride & Prejudice
  • Knocked Up
  • Punch Drunk Love
  • Bucket List
  • Arrested Development
  • Terminator 2
  • Van Wilder
  • Harry Potter 3
  • Reservoir Dogs
  • The Ben Stiller Show
  • Shaun of the Dead
  • Bourne Supremacy
This site has a very high WTF factor. There's really nothing more to do than select a movie and watch its menu screen on a tiny screen on a cartoon television in a static cartoon living room. If it was my site, each DVD screen would link to Amazon with an affiliate link so I could make a couple bucks off of it. But then, I'm greedy like that.

The average person out there doesn't know anything more about Web 2.0 than they knew about the price Yahoo! paid for Broadcast.com back in the 20th century. So what does Web 2.1 look like? I've given a preview in the pic. This is a joke folks, try not to be offended. And the author should be made aware that Web 3.0 is already well underway...

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
