TVCC

Webcomics is undoubtedly a favorite procrastination of mine. Short stories told in comics form can suck you right in and let your time fly by without you even noticing it.
So a new category I'm introducing to this blog is webcomics. And what I better way to start but with one of my favorites: The Very Closed Circle. 

It is created by Greek artists (and a few good friends of mine) and it surreal, funny and absolutely brilliant!
If you can't read Greek, don't worry about it, the ingenious minds behind TVCC provide a translation in English just below the comics! Amazing or what? If I have yet to convince you, TVCC just won the Comicdom Award for best anthology and it is the first web publication to do so! So go visit their blog and enjoy.

Tetris!


Tetris (Classic game) | Play more games

Another one of the classics. I remember that there was one time that I would even see blocks falling while dreaming, after having spend too much time playing TETRIS

Boss Key

Boss Key has been a feature of the early days of gaming. It's function, you ask? Well, quite simply my friend, with the pressing of one keyboard button it changes your pc screen from showing, let's say, that you spend your time on this blog to a safe "I'm working so hard" environment. Perfect for that sudden visit from your boss at your booth.
Some applications like chat clients etc have it installed but what if you want to create your own?
Well, I've found some instructions on how to create a boss key on Win 7 and you can read all about it here

Tips #1

Do you feel the sudden urge to start working?
Don't rush off to a hospital and don't worry, THE ART & SCIENCE OF PROCRASTINATION has your back.

• Create a list of what you're thinking needs to get done. Making tangible just how much effort you'll need to expend to accomplish everything will help clarify how disagreeable even beginning to try would be. Next, tear up the list you made and put it in the trash, or merely let it fall from your fingers onto whatever you happen to be standing or lying over at the time
• Don't be too tough on yourself when it comes to deadlines. For example, if you assign all the tasks you need to get done deadlines well beyond your life expectancy, you can make a reasonable assumption that you'll be long dead before you even need to get started on anything
• One thing you can't procrastinate if you're going to become a proficient procrastinator is excuse making. For example, excuses such as, "I didn't finish the project on time because my mom died of cancer", and, "Oh, is there a dead body in my house? I didn't notice it because I fell off a roof when I was ten and lost my sense of smell" are best made in advance to promote believability. Note: be sure not to claim the same family member died of cancer more than once

Pacman!



Well, what would procrastination be without online flash gaming? The mother of all time wasters, the downfall of even the best employees, the black hole in the matter of the universe and of everybody's "to do" lists. And yet, resisting it, would be futile. So what better way to start this blog than offering a true classic? Just press "Insert coin" and give it a try. Yes, you are only going to play once. ;-)

Tales of mere existance

We've all been here... Alas, the need to get stuff done...
