OT-"off topic" ~ SOS Syndrome & Sniglets of da day...


Shiny Object Syndrome aka “SOS” - The need to skip around from project to project or simply the inability to spend much time with any particular topic. (i.e. this post)

Sniglets are words combined into other words to define things or concepts that have no "official" definitions, they are essentially "wordsmashes" or "daffynitions" that should be in the dictionary but aren’t...yes i'm having 2 much fun with this post...

Animalanche: When you kick your stuffed animals in your sleep and they fall all over the floor. (thanx Chloe, age 9)

Cinemuck - n. The combination of popcorn, soda, and melted chocolate which covers the floors of movie theaters.

Execuglide - To propel oneself about an office without getting up from the chair.

Fetchplex - State of momentary confusion in a dog whose owner has faked throwing the ball and palmed it behind his back.

Hommorage - Doing a classic Homer Impression i.e. Doh... or just Hurting yourself to impress someone else.

Mopeeps - People compelled to look through the curtain opening of your motel room as they pass by.

Vegiludes - Individual peas or kernels of corn that you end up chasing all over the plate with your fork.

Our Votes are just numbers on a chip somewhere...

All right peeps... pay attention here...
It's not exactly advertising related but i'm hard pressed not to say that it does not work as a viral campaign...
Here I am posting and linking it on my site... :P
Here's a video proving our current electronic voting system is not only flawed but has already been Hacked, Kracked & just plain ripped apart...



It not only reminds me of Real Genius but an old Skool Hack that also makes a great point. Maybe one of these voting machine companies will wake up, bring some decent designs to stop a simple hacking con and get things right. These guys popped apart a machine and fully swapped the roms in 60 seconds. How's that for stealing our vote?
