| Papercraft Recently, my friend Tracy told me about a papercraft club she joined at work. I was like "Huh? Wtf is papercraft? And how can I join this awesome-sounding club??" Turns out, papercrafting is the art of cutting things out of paper, and then folding and gluing it together so they form 3D models of things. Sounded like something fun and craftsy, so I tagged along like a lost puppy.
Since this activity is of the arts-and-crafts nature, I expected this club be full of girls -- the type that folds origami stars and writes in mixed caps. I was a little shocked to find the room chock-full of grown men, folding cardboard cats and discussing last week's Battlestar Galactica.
So...apparently papercraft is a nerd activity.
Well....perfect. I fit right in :P So I sat down and crafted a Link papercraft.
With a little help from Tracy, and two tries of getting that massive head to stay on that little body, I'm proud to present my first completed papercraft:
I encourage all to embrace your inner nerds, and venture forth in the adventure of papercrafting!! Print out your Link templates here: www.siliconera.com/news/0604/linkpc01.jpg www.siliconera.com/news/0604/linkpc02.jpg
Enjoy, nerdwads. Knock your fracking socks off :) | | |
| 2nd (and last?) down Getting the MySpace imposter down was an ordeal. Basically, the process is:
1). Create a handwritten sign with the word "MySpace.com" and your Friend ID 2). Pose like an ass holding this sign 3). Send this photo of yourself to MySpace Administrators, so they can have a good laugh at you.
Suddenly, I imagined a collage of smiling "users" holding up MySpace signs. The last thing I wanted was to see myself in some "I love MySpace" promo in the furture.
So...FINE. You win, MySpace. I'll take the stupid photo. If this is what it takes, I'll do it....but not without a tall order of bitch face.

| One Down...Hooray! Facebook annihilated that phoney! Which is pretty much the equivalent of a SuperPoke Atom Bomb.
<Virtual KA-POWWWW!!!> And this is reason #39182910239182357 why Facebook is better than MySpace. I didn't need to jump through hoops to report impersonation. Thanks Facebook! | | |
| Another One!Looks like there are more imposters out there . Someone else found another one (thanks Joe): http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=708294991 Now...I *am* on facebook, so I requested to be her friend. Let's see if the real me gets along with the fake me. ...this could be interesting. Commence SuperPoke World War I!!! | | |
