Become a sushi chef - Time Waster

The road to becoming a sushi chef is a long and hard one. Over 10 years are spent learning this culinary art form. From proper handling of the fish to mastering the intricate knife work, the dedication required is truly amazing. But if you're not sure that the profession is right for you why not fill in as a sushi chef for a week at Sushi Go Round.

Like any good sushi chef your goal is to keep your patrons happy by preparing their orders correctly and timely. When a customer places an order consult your recipe book, create it and send the dish down the conveyor belt. If you don't follow the recipe correctly your end product will be a turd of a dish, so no improvising here.

In addition, you'll have to also play executive chef keeping tabs on inventory, ordering when supplies are low. And if you're not careful, you may end up with no ingredients to make your dishes. In order to keep your customers happy you can certainly offer them some sake while you pay extra to have your deliveries rushed.

As you progress further into the week your menu expands and your daily goal increases. But remember a sushi chef is rooted in honor and tradition so keep your skills as sharp as your knives and press forward!

Sushi Samurai - Today's Time Waster

Sushi SamuraiSushi Samurai is a cute Flash remake of arcade classic BurgerTime, except (in case you hadn't guessed) with sushi. If you ever played BurgerTime you'll pick up Sushi Samurai in no time, but in case you're unfamiliar here's how it goes down: You control a little samurai who must walk across the sushi ingredients to make them fall into the dishes below. However, you're hindered by evil food-themed enemies including tofu, radishes, and the evil puffer fish. You can shoot wasabi to immobilize the enemies and you can pick up other bonuses like soy sauce (for extra lives) and miso soup (which freezes all enemies). Sushi Samurai is just as fun as its predecessor, and even a little more forgiving, and its controls are solid and the graphics (in particular the enemies) are adorable.

Forumwarz - a potentially offensive time waster

I pwn UAfter spending the better part of an hour on Forumwarz I still can't decide if it's just sick or if it's kind of fun. It's a bit like a car wreck on the highway. I know I shouldn't be looking but I can't quite turn away.

It's sick, it's twisted, it's the internet on it's worst level and darn it, it's kind of fun. At least for a little while.

Forumwarz is a parody role-playing game that takes place on the internet - or at least the Forumwarz version of it. Your goal is to complete missions that are given to you through a mock up of GoogleTalk called Sentrillion.

Your first "friend" is ShallowEsophagus who begins giving you missions to pwn various forums by being a troll. Depending on the character type you are assigned at start up, you have tools like drooling on the keyboard or bashing your head on the keyboard that you can use to destroy forum threads and eventually, pwn a forum.

Future missions involve buying illegal software from the Russians, pwning more difficult forums and other internet oddness.

Completing missions gives you cash, called Flezz in game, and items that you can pawn or use in other missions. The game is NOT for those easily offended. It's crass, coarse and there are frequent f-bombs in the fake chat sessions.

This is also a game for a more mature audience as it requires you to shop at the Drugs R Fun store to get various concoctions to improve your playing, engage in certain cyber activities to get more Flezz and just generally use a more adult perspective.

If you can get past that, here are the more enjoyable and time-wasting aspects.
