== Magazines & E-Zines ==
* Ever since ''Cracked'' picked up David Wong as editor, they've gone from a cheap ''Mad'' clone into a genuinely interesting satire site, the sadly-rare form of satire that has something to ''say'', rather than just attacking (or just referencing) everything in sight.
Line 25:
* [http://www.badassoftheweek.com Badass of the Week]. Simply the e-zine that saved my life. So full of awesome stories about guys that... well, check for yourself.
 
== [[VisualNew Novel]]sMedia ==
* Anything and everything by [[Nasuverse|Kinoko Nasu]], but especially ''Fate/Stay Night''. Yes, all you do is read, but I DARE YOU not to cry in any of the three routes. There is, on average, three bawling scenes per route, and at least one heartwarming scene. Lets not even start on the crowning moments, as well as music, of awesome.
* ''[[Tsukihime]]''. Five routes, amounting to both five different stories, and five different aspects of the overall story, each character-driven and brilliantly reflected by the particular heroine they focus on. The protagonist is profoundly likable and human. Even the much-maligned sex scenes aren't really that bad, viewed from a relationship-building rather than erotic perspective, and the music that accompanies them is nothing short of lovely. Oh, and speaking of, the soundtrack overall is very simple, but perfectly atmospheric. Overall, the game's just a wonderful read.
* Oh, gods, [[Katawa Shoujo|Katawa Shoujo.]] Who could've thought that the brainchild of [[The Imageboard That Must Not Be Named|that image board]], and an [[eroge]] no less, could be something so... so beautiful. Seriously. [http://katawa-shoujo.com/download.php Go play it.]
 
== Other ==
* The Internet. ''Everything'' about it. Sometimes I fantasize about being able to speak to a person 30 years ago just so that I can tell him every single thing that is awesome about the Internet.
 
== Games ==
* [[Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot]]. I could play it all night. My family could play it all night. My ''extended'' family could play it all night. It never gets boring, the game is never the same twice, and even when you feel like it might you have the option to completely change the game around with an expansion pack or even your own imagination. It quenches my thirst for the arbitrary so I have the time to make the rest of my life a bit more orderly and sensible. In a nutshell, it keeps me from driving everyone around me to insanity.
* Freeze tag. 'Nuff said.
