WTF? (Volume 17)

Today's Your Daily Click is what happens when a marketing campaign gets really detailed. It makes me go WTF? What the Friday? It's for the coming Pixar film "Wall-E". Enjoy.

And happy holidays!

[UPDATE: Check out this site for some crazy Pixar inside jokes that'll make you go WTF? even if it isn't Friday!]

Skip to the commercials

Everyone loves ads. They're the real reason I watch TV. Your Daily Click brings you the 64 freakiest ones, and most are complete with the original. Enjoy.

Pop the Question

"The laziest man I ever met put popcorn in his pancakes so they would turn over by themselves." - W. C. Fields

On one recent movie theater excursion, as I handed over $6 for popcorn to go with my $5 movie, I wondered just how popcorn was made. I faintly recalled a story about an angry man inside each unpopped kernal from elementary school, but something deep down inside of me told me this was probably inaccurate.

Lucky for me, I have the internet and quickly found the correct answer. And lucky for you, you have the internet and have found your way to this blog where today's Your Daily Click let's you pop your own popcorn. But, just like in the movie theaters, keep an eye out for the powerups and watch out for the obstacles and traps. Enjoy.

You've got questions...

... Your Daily Click has answers. Text your question to this site or answer others' questions. Enjoy.

Why thank you!

Feeling down? Winter got you seeing blue? Your Daily Click is here to help. Just a simple refresh and you'll see an easy-to-use compliment right before your (beautiful) eyes. Enjoy. And thanks, Lily! You're the best!

[Update: Did I realize that the picture for today was going to move like that? Nope!]

WTF? (Volume 16)

Children do it each year. Now it's your turn. Tell Santa what to do with today's Your Daily Click. There's even a dirty version. WTF? What The Friday? Enjoy.

It sucks to be me

Today's Your Daily Click shows you why products suck. Enjoy, and thanks to Lily.

Live and learn

"A word to the wise ain't necessary, it's the stupid ones who need the advice." - Bill Cosby

Spent all day trying to think of something to write here. The site pretty much speaks for itself. It's a site that periodically posts some advice for different aspects of your life, and it's Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

This site is crap

The title of this post says it all. Your Daily Click has gotten really crappy. It'll answer all of the questions you never wanted answered about... poop. Enjoy.

Mortal combat

How about a morbid start to the week? Your Daily Click asks you to determine whether 23 celebrities are dead or alive. (Evil laugh). Enjoy.

(P.S.: The tombstone was created here.)

WTF? (Volume 15)

Your Daily Click lets you pimp your zombie. WTF? What the Friday? Enjoy.

Travel smart

Your Daily Click gets you organized for your next vacation. Enjoy. Thanks to Don for the site.

Oh... it's a person

"If I look confused it's because I'm thinking" - Samuel Goldwin

I don't know.

You might be thinking that this link should probably be a WTFriday, but what you may not know is that it also works as a Wednesday post for someone who lacks sleep. It's Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

You're all geniuses

Well I knew we didn't have any dumb readers at our site, but I didn't realize you were all geniuses. That's according to today's Your Daily Click, which tells you the readability of any Web site. YDC is genius level, while the Web sites of ESPN and The New York Times are junior high level.

A statistic like that's gotta be true. Enjoy. And thanks to Lily for the site.

Now hear this

Close your eyes and think of a song. Any song. Preferably your favorite song or one that you haven't heard in a while. Now open them and click on Your Daily Click.

It's a site that will play any song you want. I've tried two dozen different songs and haven't stumped it yet. Enjoy.

Off for Thanksgiving

Hey, we're off for Thanksgiving. Here's a very simple and easy game to tide you over until Monday, Nov. 26. Your Daily Click wishes you a happy holiday. Enjoy.

A strike? Spare me.

We're right in the middle of the fall season when the TV writers decide to go on strike. How selfish of them to ask for higher pay at the cost of not making us laugh/cry/think.

But it's the reality, folks, and Your Daily Click helps you sort out the mess. Learn when your favorite shows will go the way of the Sega Dreamcast (into extinction). Enjoy.

Of course, it's a game.

It's Wednesday, so today's link must be a game, right?

Yes. Yes, it is a game and not something educational. It's Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

The quick brown FOX

Watch how editors change FOX News headlines over time with Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

I'm phony

Someone recently told me that we use too many of Lily's submitted Clicks.

So?

Your Daily Click lets you discover the hidden meaning behind your digits. Enjoy. (And thanks Lily for the submission).

New dog, old tricks

If you think today's Your Daily Click is a substitute for a real pet, to you I say, WTF? What the Friday? Enjoy. (Thanks Lily)

Fast money

Bosses everywhere with hourly employees will love today's Your Daily Click.

Ever wondered how much of your employer's money you waste surfing the Internet? Now you can see it pile up — literally – as the money you make per second appears on the screen. There are several uses for this, but a fun one might be to turn it on at the beginning of your work day and check back periodically to see how much money you've pocketed in the last hour. Just in writing this post I would have made $1.29. That's enough for a Mountain Dew.*

Thanks Lily for the site. Enjoy.

Dog eat dog

"Humor is a serious thing. I like to think of it as one of our greatest earliest natural resources, which must be preserved at all cost." - James Thurber

Don't you hate when you tell a joke and it is met by silence, thereby requiring you to have to explain the humor in it to the audience, after which the punchline is rendered unfunny? Well, such is the life of Brad Anderson, the cartoonist behind the comic strip Marmaduke.

I have all but given up on trying to decipher his comedy. Fortunately, today's Your Daily Click is a little more patient with Mr. Anderson. An oft-updated blog that digs a bit deeper into these daily drawings. Enjoy.

Behind bars

Today's Your Daily Click lets you see into the minds of felons. And I don't mean Republican congressmen. Burn.

Enjoy.

Finding middle ground

Find a restaurant, golf course, coffee shop or more that's equidistant between you and a friend in a different city.

We've done a site like this before, but this one lets you enter up to four locations so you can find somewhere that's the same distance for everyone. It's Your Daily Click, and does it go without saying that Lily submitted it? Enjoy.

WTF? (Volume 14)

America is a destructive nation. We cut down trees to feed our addiction to paper; we cut down innocent people to feed our addiction to oil.

But do we really need to destroy tiny segments of air trapped in plastic?

Yes, yes we do. Your Daily Click. It'll make you go WTF? What the Friday? Enjoy (and thanks to Lily).

Flag baring

"It's not a cap. It's a flag." — New Era

Truer words were never spoken. And caps are cool, so flags are cool, and that means Your Daily Click is cool. That's the transitive property. Enjoy.

(My flag is above. Post yours in the comment section.)

Travel light

"Wouldn't it be awesome if we could just travel around instantly to where we needed to go with teleporters?" - Bryan W.

Seriously. Bryan said that. Over the weekend. Randomly and unprovoked. When I was driving him around Dallas. And certainly, it would be great. Unfortunately, you might recall Roald Dahl's findings concerning human teleportation as outlined in his thesis entitled "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". More specifically, upon being teleported, you will shrink down to a miniature size, thereby requiring a visit to the Taffy Pulling Room to be stretched back to normalcy, albeit thinner.

Fear not, brave visitors. Today's Your Daily Click gives you a taste of the potential of teleportation. Shoot out a blue and a yellow teleporter. Jump into one and pop out of the other. [The speed at which you enter one teleporter dictates how fast you will exit the other.] Enjoy. Happy Halloween!

Walkthroughs available on YouTube if you can't figure out a particular level.

When worlds kaleid

Create your own kaleidoscope. Pretty freaking sweet. Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

Heil, kitty, kitty

Are you offended easily. You'll love Your Daily Click. Blame Leann for the link. Enjoy.

WTF? (Volume 13)

No two people look the same. This kindergarten lesson is wrong. There are exactly 759,375 combinations of people.

Think that's crazy? I think that's Your Daily Click. It made me (and Lily, the submitter) say WTF? What the Friday? Enjoy.

"You" can quote me on it

Some "blogs" just don't need any type of "explanation" or "introduction."

Today's "Your Daily Click" is one of those blogs "I" am referring to. "Enjoy."

Red Square

Russia hasn't quite advanced to the gaming level of the United States, but I say more power to 'em if they can create games like today's Your Daily Click.

The instructions are simple. Try to avoid the blue squares and the walls for as long as you can. If you make it 18 seconds, you're a genius. I topped out at just over 8.4 seconds. Good luck, and enjoy. Thanks to Lily for another great site.

Plus it expands when you add water...

Rather than write my own poorly worded and far-from-clever introduction, I'll let the submitter of today's link do the talking.

"Feed a hungry person by answering vocab questions. Perfect for the socially conscious high schooler prepping for the SATs, but also good for other compassionate individuals."

It's Your Daily Click. Enjoy! Thanks to Lily for the site. And for the writeup!

WFT? (Volume 12)

Stop what you're doing because these rabbits don't approve of it.

Your Daily Click today calls for a WTF? (What the Friday?) Enjoy.

What are you supposed to be?

For three or four Halloweens when I was little I was a baseball player. That meant the same Little League Baseball uniform I wore earlier that year for games was now supposed to be a cute costume.

But it worked. I got candy.

Now's the time when you're supposed to start thinking of that Halloween costume. I'm going to be a ghost or a hobo this year, not sure which.

If you're not sure either, Your Daily Click will help. It gives you some pointers on how to create a costume that resembles some newsworthy celebrities. (See Phil Spector above). Enjoy.

Seriously funny

"For art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Seriously. I have no idea what to say about this site. Just trust me and blindly click it.

It's today's Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

Fly free (or close)

Don't you hate it when you book a flight and then a week later someone else books a flight on the same airline and same days for hundreds less?

Your Daily Click will help you make sure that never happens again.

Enjoy.

Fill in the blank

Your Daily Click asks you to name the movie by showing only the actors' clothes (not the actors themselves).

Example: That's one of my favorites, "Fargo," above.

Good luck, and enjoy.

Bamb-ooh

Did you get your pandafix today?

Your Daily Click is here for you if not. Enjoy.

Jump for joy

"The word 'aerobics' came about when the gym instructors got together and said: If we're going to charge $10 an hour, we can't call it Jumping up and down." - Rita Rudner

Sometimes, you just get that uncontrollable urge to jump around on top of your keyboard, but you're smart enough to know that your boss would see this and know that you weren't doing your job. But, you might ask, how can I curb this desire while still maintaining a façade of productivity?

Look no further than today's Your Daily Click. Just another helpful pointer from me to you. No charge, just pay it forward. Enjoy.

In time

With each tick of the minute hand on a clock, the world brings life, death, love and hate.

With each tick of the minute hand on Your Daily Click, the world brings humor, wonder, happiness and interest.

That's called parallel structure.

Today's Click takes submitted photos from around the world and uses them to show you the current time. Enjoy.

Size matters

Today's Your Daily Click is really cool. It takes a picture and intelligently resizes it so you lose the dead space without distorting everything.

The two pictures above are the same photo. The skinnier one has been resized using today's Click. Pretty cool, no? Notice how the dead space between the swimmers has been lessened.

Play around and commit some photographic ethics violations. Enjoy.

It's your wedding day

“A happy bridesmaid makes a happy bride.”
— Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Well if that's true, Alfred, what does an ugly bridesmaid make? It's an odd question that's answered by today's site by bringing you the ugliest bridesmaid dresses ever worn. Some of them make me say: WTF? What the Friday? Your Daily Click. Enjoy.

Generation after generation

An: "But why would you link to another blog? That's suicide."

Bryan: "I have to give the people what they desire."

An: "As you wish."

(Note: conversation did not actually happen)

Your Daily Click. It's a blog of generators. Enjoy.

Garfield: The Remix

"What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish." - Chuck Palahniuk

A blonde goes into the dry cleaners to have her sweater cleaned. The second rabbi looks suprised, and after a moments pause says, "You know that's funny because MY son also went away and came back a Christian!" My hope is that when they look down in my coffin they say, "Look! He's moving!"

Huh.

Guess it doesn't work with everything. Try today's Your Daily Click for some better results. Enjoy.

World cuisine

Take a look at what people from around the world put on their dinner table each night with this feature from Time magazine. Each picture shows what the family eats in an average week — and how much they spend on food in a week. Some spend $5 (U.S.) while others spend more than $500 (U.S.) each week. It's food for thought.

It's Your Daily Click, and we thank Lily for the submission. Enjoy.

Get in the Swing of It

"In baseball, you don't know nothing."

— Yogi Berra

I think a game is long overdue, don't you? Well in honor of today's Wild Card playoff game, Your Daily Click brings you America's sport: video games. Oh, and baseball. A baseball video game. Enjoy. And thanks to Greg for today's site.

WTF (Volume 10)

Now for something completely different.

It's happened to all of us. You've done something horrible or illegal or shameful or just plain rude, and you need to flee. You could leave for Canada or South America, but who wants to leave the greatest country on Earth to do that? My point exactly.

No, you need Your Daily Click. It will teach you how to disappear without a trace in the United States, with helpful hints like:

"A cup of coffee on the dashboard in front of a guy or gal wearing work clothes arouses no suspicions. You're on your way to work, not running from someone."

or

"I don't know anything about dock working and I suspect that dock workers are trade unionized. If you lack marketable skills, you might check into dock work."

or

"Get a couple of books and put them on your dash board. Something from Ann Rand and Albert Einstein, maybe, or something containing intellectual material. Criminals don't read -- they're stupid: That's why they're criminals."

I actually found myself reading the entire article, and it was both funny and useful. But the whole time, I must admit, I was thinking: WTF? What The Friday? Thanks to Lily for sending this in. (Who is she running from?) Enjoy.
