(Anti) Social-Lists 7/26/2009
Sadly, my birthday week is coming to a close. It wasn’t exactly what I’ve expected and I’ve learned that I really need to “go with the flow” more and not stick to such strict schedules. As I was preparing this list, I realized that I haven’t been surfing at all and didn’t have much to add. Some people seem to really like the lists but I am starting to question whether or not I’m going to continue it.

I’m not a big fan of the term “fail”. And even being able to balance on a unicycle is pretty impressive. I was, however, surprised by the outcome.

Oh Kim i love the videos! I watched all of them ;) I thought that the unicycle dude would have his teeth crashed rather than the stairs. Good for him ;) As for the monkey island. God i love the humor of this game. Now, you got me into thinking about getting this ;)
PS: Bday was very good for me with family and friends. It was nice.

Hi Stratos – I highly recommend the Tales of Monkey Island series. The first episode was about 4 hours long and a couple of times I laughed out loud. And hearing the Monkey Island theme music again made me feel happy.

Well, happy end of your birthday week :)
In reply to the video with the unicycle, these kids are so funny. They not only videotape themselves destroying private property, but they put it on YouTube.
With kids (and simply dumb people) it seems history is in a never ending repeat loop.

Hi John – Thank you!
I completely expected the kid to get hurt – I did not imagine the glass shattering. And the way he looked at it like – uh-oh.

Awesome list!
That was probably the last thing I was expecting to happen on the unicycle video. ;-)
I couldn’t resist and watched some of Monkey Island. Really funny. :-)

Hi Jim – I highly recommend the Tales of Monkey Island series – it really is very funny. There were parts that I thought were funny that weren’t even included in that video.

Sorry to hear your week is coming to a closer (I never heard of a birthday WEEK before actually!)
I do enjoy your lists and read them weekly. Of course I may not visit every blog listed; and at best, maybe two, but I always discover new blogs to read and subscribe to this way.

Hi Carla – Thanks! I’m glad you like the posts. I’m just finding that I’m often searching for links at the last minute when previously I had plenty.
A birthday week is kind of a joke – I started it with my kid who seems to end up with 3 parties that cover a week :-)

I feel the same way when I do lists. That’s why I don’t do them weekly – Its hard enough doing them twice a month! Maybe I need to expand my blogging circle.

Oh crud. Another birthday forgotten. Sorry Kim.
But don’t panic. I can be the first to wish you “Happy week after Birthday week”!
Oh, and I like the Antisocial lists. Please don’t stop them.

Hi Kristi – That was a good article. I don’t think I’ve seen any other detailed explanations of the options pages.
