The Smarmy Carny

Gamers will find this absolutely hilarious. The guys over at pointlesswasteoftime.com have written "A Gamers' Manifesto," which comprises their list of things they hate about video games.

The list is chock full of "That's so true!" observations, including the whole "Don't show my character casting magic meteors that smash mountains in one scene and in the next send me all over the dungeon trying to find a single key to a rickety wooden door that looks like it could be knocked in with a strong shoulder" annoyance.

I will warn you that there is liberal use of "mature language" used on that page (and on that site), so use your judgment on whether to click. You have been warned.

Free iPods

OK, boys and girls. We've got to push for just one more referral for me so I can report back firsthand that this deal is legitimate.

Status:

I got all five!

If you want further hints, tips, and tricks on getting your own free iPod, just read my previous post on the subject. Or, you can get started immediately by signing up.

I find that the most common problem is not in getting people to sign up under me, but in having them actually complete their own offer. Thirteen people signed up on the site, but only four completed an offer. That means nine people signed up without actually completing an offer. There's a nice Napster trial that should be quick, easy, and painless to sign up for. It's up right now, and if you don't see it, keep checking back, because it will return. If you don't want to wait, there are other free trials on there, too, if you read through all the offers. As I said earlier, if you want tips on getting your own free iPod, just read my previous post on the subject.

Come on, party people! You can get started by following this link.
