Cool Stuff Sunday: "Every Day I'm Spirographin'"

Another week, another batch of interesting stuff from around the internet. <Note to self: Insert more text here.>

The possibility exists we might see another series of Blackadder, one of the best British comedy shows ever. If this doesn't excite you, you've clearly never watched Blackadder. Go do so now.

Cracked.com repurposes bad True Detective dialogue for humorous purpose.

A look at what people associate with various colors of shirts. Yeah. That's pretty specific.

A.V. Club breaks down ten of the most-sampled drum beats in history.

Online spirograph! I haven't played with one of these in years, spent a couple hours on it the other day.

Soundfonts for NES games. If you've ever wanted to compose chiptunes that sound ripped from Battletoads or Super Mario Bros., this site gives you the ability to do that.

Everyday Misanthrope lets you simulate the life of someone who hates humanity and takes it out by trolling online, road-raging, and being a petty jerk.

A long time ago, fans created a "Battle of Hogwarts" documentary, an in-universe documentary of the Battle of Hogwarts. I just found out about it the other day.

Surprise, surprise. Climate-denying science papers cherry-pick their data and do other naughty unscientific things to fit an agenda.

Check out all the suspiciously-similar Marvel and DC comics characters.

Unsurprisingly, working on violent, visceral, disgusting games can mess with developers' heads.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 is sounding pretty good!
