Awesome Thing - Rock, Paper, Scissors
Today's awesome thing of the day is an age old game: rock, paper scissors. Actually, I don't know how old the game is...
(time passes)
Okay I checked on wikipedia. Basically, no one knows, but it was popularized in the later 1900s in Japan. Now that you've learned something, have an demotivational poster as an award:
I've always thought people played rock, paper, scissor (RPS) to pass the time, much like Chinese checkers or picking your nose. However, I've found out that some people actually take this game seriously. In fact, there's a whole study of advanced techniques of the game.
Advanced RPS (http://www.worldrps.com/advanced.html) details it. Reading it will make you smarter, guaranteed. I mean, just look at it!

The Character of ScissorsYou feel that? That's your brain growing.
Scissors are a tool. As children, we use them to cut construction paper for craft projects. As adults, we may cut cloth for clothing or use scissors to open plastic packaging. Scissors are associated with industry, craft work, making things. There is still a certain amount of aggression associated with scissors; they are, after all, sharp and dangerous implements. Scissors, however, represent aggression that is controlled, contained, re-channeled into something constructive. In RPS, scissors are often perceived as a clever or crafty throw, a well-planned outflanking maneuver. As such, players are more likely to use scissors when they are confident or winning.

The Official List of the Best Things in Existence
![]() |
| 1.4.3 FTW |
The Official List of the Best Things in Existence (http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/The_Official_List_of_the_Best_Things_in_Existence) contains the best things since God to Eminem. And the best thing is, since it's a wiki, you can edit it all to oblivion!
A sample entry goes something like this:
People have way too much time on their hands.Sandals
1,500 BC-47 BC
Sandals were a universal godsend, as nearly every culture on earth discovered them around the same time, all giving positive reviews. The Hebrews said “Whether wandering in the desert for forty years, running from our captors or defeating our would-be oppressors, sandals keep our feet comfortable.” The popular Roman advertisements claimed “Sandals: Jvst do it!” Even the Japanese, on the other side of the world, noted “The sandal prevents our feet from turning hard and calloused like that of a dog.”
Wow. I just realized this is the first post that doesn't have the world "awesome" in the title. Sign of the apocalypse.

Awesome Website - Passive Aggressive Notes
Today's awesome thing of the day is Passive Aggressive Notes (http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/)
The site is filled with mildly threatening messages, in paper form. Perfect for when you're feeling angry, but are too scared to show it. Hey boss! I'm secretly flicking you off underneath my coat.
A couple examples. Way more at the website:
Here's a really funny one, but it has explicit language. So, click if you dare (but it's so fricking funny!)
