I Wish Life Were More Like a Video Game

Hey there Popped Culture fans. If you've landed here you clearly aren't averse to taking a little time out to indulge yourself in some rejuvenating nostalgia. Some would call it time wasting — those people are philistines.

Anyway... I was reading Layercake (as you should too) and came across a fabulous collection of game widgets from LabPixies. Space Invaders, memory games, crosswords, music stuff and all sorts of whatnot that you can play on the page and add to you own blog. I could resist, I mean come on, Space Invaders on my own site with no need for quarters? It's all so Futurama:

ND-ND: We're losing ships sir. What are your orders?
LRRR: Increase speed, drop down and reverse direction!

In other news, I wrote my first post for the Torontoist. Fun! Thanks to David Topping for the invite to join his merry crew. Cool city, cool blog, cool beans.
