Cracked Head

Today's blog is on the website Cracked.com. Cracked is a website where you can find hilarious articles on just about anything. I've spent the last 2 hours perusing their section on video games and I've been laughing my ass off.

The best part is that the articles Cracked reports on are all true. Its not satire like The Onion, these are actual real things written by funny people in hilarious ways.

For instance you can check out 5 Creepy Ways Video Games Are Trying to Get You Addicted to find out how Microsoft has done research very similar to drug testing on rats to determine the best way to get people to keep playing their games.

Or you could read The 7 Biggest D*** Moves in the History of Online Gaming to learn how a team of players spent an entire year planning and executing the assassination of another player in the game, costing him in game items worth roughly $16,500.

For my non-nerd readers who are looking at this blog because they have to for class, I encourage you to browse some of Cracked's other, less nerdy articles like The 8 Most Excessively Disturbing Public Health Campains.

Because anyone who isn't at least slightly disturbed by this image should probably be locked up somewhere away from young boys.
