Great ads. Well done.

Those little Mac window icons we found inside of Valve's Steam gaming platform might not just be skins as some of you thought. Today, Valve released a slew of teaser ads to various websites around the web (Kotaku, MacRumors, MacNN, Shack News, Macworld, Gizmodo). Six in all, the ads (pasted below) tease the release of the following Mac games: Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress 2 and Left 4 Dead. (Via Gizmodo)

My brother's girlfriend sent me the below list of 20 points. It's one of those internet chains, albeit one I've never seen before. There was no provenance attached, so I figure it's ok to post here.

ETA: Beth found the provenance here, at Ruminations.com, which seems to have other funny sayings, too. Thank you!

Happy Weekend!

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

10... Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this -- ever.

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call...

18. My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad/Mom what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the do I respond to that?

19. I think the freezer deserves a light as well..

20. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Google has begun phasing out support for Internet Explorer 6, identified as the weak link in a cyber attack on the firm.

Don’t Play With Your Food! (Or Do.)

Normally, if you’re a healthy, red-blooded cheetah, a nice juicy impala is the “runs really fast and goes ‘boing!’ ” part of this good-for-you breakfast. But what if you’re not very hungry at the moment? Then he’s your new playmate!

That’s what photographer Michel Denis-Huot discovered in these amazing shots for the Daily Mail. Already tired from hunting, the cheetahs patted and nuzzled the impala for about 15 minutes…

… and, even more amazingly, the impala nuzzled back …

… before remembering that it was food and scampering away.

Ok, now that's just funny.
But seeing as how I don't drink, let's go ahead and substitute the alcohol for good old fashioned Dr Pepper.

Man am I gonna have to pee when the night is over...
