Kiss your productivity goodbye!

Do you remember Snood? I believe this bare-bones game is the cause for the majority of college dropouts between 2003 and 2006. My friends would spend hours at their computers, not writing papers due the next morning, but hurling primary colored blobs at other blobs. Snood brought insomnia, it brought distraction, it brought blood rain.

Well now I've discovered Vectorpark, a web site of slick, well-designed, and painfully simple flash games. This is bad. This is beyond bad. It is terrible. I had to force myself to close the browser, or I would have spent the next 5 hours playing their game "levers".

It's so simple! It's so cool! It's SO. DISTRACTING.

And I figured, well - what the hell? Why not share my distraction with the rest of the world?

Check out Vectorpark... but be forewarned: you won't get anything else done today.

  1. I have taken a vow never EVER to play any game on the internet. No good can come of it.

    It's sort of like "The Hills." And oysters. Maybe everyone else raves about them, but I don't feel like I'm really missing anything.
