Computers & Fun #6 6/28 Wednesday Afternoon - Computer Lab

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

The labcoats were by the door and Abby was fairly bouncing up at the front of the computer lab. "Did you guys ever have free swim in elementary school? It was usually when there was some free time or when the teacher was bored and everyone just got to go play in the pool for an hour."

"Today is Internet Free Swim. You guys get to spend time having fun and seeing what the internet has to offer in entertainment. I'm going to point some cool things that I like, but feel free to find your own treasures and show them off to the class. Well, most things you can show off to the class." Abby said with a wink and outlined the four main categories.

"First we've got intellectual fun. Things you read like comics, fanfiction, satire, blogs, and snarky reviews. Secondly we move onto clicky fun. Games, soundboards, puzzles, webquests. There's nothing like doing nothing, so for our third category we've got videos, clips, music, radio, tv shows and cartoons. Finally..." Abby grinned and leaned across the table, "We've got porn. It comes in all shapes and sizes, from vanilla to hard core and there's something for everyone. Even clowns."

She walked around and passed out large red drink cups. "Okay, so go ahead! Swim away and enjoy your Caf-Pow. No internet surfing party is complete without large doses of caffeine and sugar."

[ooc: Posted early because I'm sleeping in tomorrow and there's porn in this class. Wait for the OCD please. OCD is up! Go ahead and play!]

Ready fun

Dilbert cartoons, fanfiction.net, televisionwithoutpity, etc

Peter went straight to The Order of the Stick (http://www.giantitp.com/cgi-bin/GiantITP/ootscript), a webcomic for D&D geeks. The solution to the riddle in #327 killed.

Conner might've spent all class at Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/), which was his idea of intellectual Internet fun anyway.

Because hey, sports statistics. That's a lot of numbers.

After checking the latest Userfriendly (http://www.userfriendly.org) update, Zack started searching fanficton.net for Skeletons fic. Sadly instead of witty, geeky humour, they all seemed to be about increasingly contrived ways to get Agent Ruth and Doctor Rennet into bed.

Once again Willow decided to multitask computer class by researching. Today she was trying to find out anything about ghosts and hauntings.

Granted this was not technically cheating since for Willow research was fun.

Ranma discovers webcomics. Ooh Megatokyo (http://www.megatokyo.com/) and Inverloch. (http://www.seraph-inn.com/index.html)

Sam took the opportunity to start doing some research on hauntings, looking for any kind of history of ghosts in the area.

In another window, he opened up fanfiction.net, and looked up Spooky Things. It wasn't until after he'd gotten deep into a "Dan/Sean" story that he realized what the little slash mark meant. Oops.

Bridge is halfheartedly scanning some bad Abaranger fanfic in one tab (what's with all those Orange and Purple Ranger OCs?) while looking up information on ghosts and negative energy in another.

Clicky Fun

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

miniclip.com, Mancala Snails (http://www.rocketsnail.com/mancala/game.htm), etc

John starts badgerbadgerbadger to see how many other people will catch the infection.

Re: Clicky Fun

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

Continuing his world tour of RP geekery, Peter stopped by The Kingdom of Loathing (http://www3.kingdomofloathing.com/) and ended up fighting the Bonerdagon with his Disco Bandit. Soon enough, the Cyrpt had been undefiled.

Re: Clicky Fun

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Not for nothing was one of Conner's best friends a massive, massive computer geek.

PopCap Games? (http://www.popcap.com/) Lots and lots of clicky fun.

Re: Clicky Fun

[electric-sitar.livejournal.com]

Demyx discovered Neopets (www.neopets.com) and became instantly absorbed.

Re: Clicky Fun

[twohalvesofaphd.livejournal.com]

Zack started playing some odd game (http://www.questfortherest.com/) he found.

Re: Clicky Fun

[ranma-sao.livejournal.com]

Ranma finds a little online RPG and plays on a smaller server of it for awhile. I will beat that Green Dragon... (http://www.sixf00t4.com/dragon/home.php?op=timeout)

Asian Backstreet Boys (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6739710473912337648&q=I+want+it+that+way), Milk & Cereal (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1266227676545030062&q=milk+and+cereal), and of course... The Llama song (http://albinoblacksheep.com/flash/llama.php)

NUMA NUMA! (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6377855743675143177&q=numa+numa)

Re: Lazy Fun

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

Peter ended up at Bad Gods, the newest site from internet comedic genius Lore Sjöberg. The Nintendogs clip (http://www.badgods.com/nintendogs.html) deserved a special mention, he felt.

Re: Lazy Fun

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

And Conner was back at Yahoo! Sports.

What? There were video clips.

Porny Fun

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

Like I'm going to find you examples!

Re: Porny Fun

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

Peter stared for a moment. This had to be a trick. He wasn't sure how or why, but it just seemed like that kind of thing.

So he went to Google (http://www.google.com/) where one can always find plenty of porn if they're smart or not careful.

Chat

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

Will there be drama between members of the computer class today? Who knows? Feel free to chat and drink lots of Caff-Pow

Re: Chat

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John starts playinh meowing cats juuuuust loud enough for Ranma to hear.

Talk to Abby

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

Before, during or after class

Re: Talk to Abby

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

At some point during the class, Bridge raises his hand.

OOC

[cheerfulgoth.livejournal.com]

I....have nothing to share.

I broke my brain playing a drunk Blair and cussing in Kumbaya. I'm pretty sure I'm going to hell.
