First Person Tetris.This is amazing, but it might make you feel dizzy after a while.
I am a god at playing Tetris and I can't do that! I can't! It's too dizzy and swirly!
Once you get the hang of it, it's not too bad. I got to level 2 on my first try...of course, having the space key instead of the up arrow as rotate really screws with my skillz, so I didn't get much farther.

I got to level 2 no problem, and played through half of it, but the perspective really started making me a bit nauseous.
I don't know; fire poles are pretty goddamn awesome too.
You just need a spiral staircase/slide big enough to have a fire pole down the middle.
I was just thinking that. Plus, a fire pole has a more sophisticated/less childish vibe to it.
The spiral staircase-cum-firepole just got added to my dream house designs. Preferably in the library. "What? My copy of Blood Meridian is on one of the lower shelves!? AWAY!!!!!!"
Your library is 3 stories high, right? And completely open? That would rock.
The one I'm have planned is two stories, each floor with cathedral "ceilings" (as it is indeed completely open), and has floor to ceiling shelves with rolling stepladders. Bookshelves exist in the open space on the first floor (though low to the ground), except for the space occupied by a gentlemanly parlor. A balcony floor necessitates the pole and staircase.
The ceiling is still being considered. I wish I could do an entirely glass geodesic dome so I'd have a constant view of the sky and sunlight everywhere, but it'd likely look appalling from the outside.

Someday Technology is going to put all of us out of our jobs Behold, an open source program that models human beings automatically.
Pretty cool, but my guess is that it's just morphing between a bunch of models -- models someone had to make by hand. And I don't know if you'd really want to use any model this program can come up with. In any case, no matter how good technology gets (and it'll certainly take a lot of the grunt work out of this sort of stuff), you're always going to need artists to design and direct it. I think your job is safe.
I don't know if these would be funnier if the host wasn't exactly the kind of person he is looking to make fun of, or if that irony makes it even funnier.
Edit: Oh geeze I just finished that video, Sail. "Wolf shirt wearing retarded" from the girls wearing multicolored raybands.

I'm going through Tokyo Mango's archives. Much TOTD material.
YES.

And I don't know, but I'm definitely finding these videos hilarious either way.
