Santa has finally got around to creating his own Twitter account. But, it seems as though he is truly micro-blogging all his most inner thoughts and feelings this season. Apparently, he doesn’t give a flying fuck if you get coal or nothing at all. If you’ve asked for anything nice this year and you’ve done your very best to be a good person, you’re still screwed because Santa could care less about the list.

This dog is now officially the coolest dog ever lived. I’d like to challenge any dog to try and play Tony Hawk’s Ride and top this dog’s score. If you’ve been living under an internet rock and don’t know who this dog is, go past the break to refresh your viral video memory.

I’m all for 8-bit art.  It gets me in a nostalgic way. But something like the video past the break just keeps my jaw dropped and my head cocked to the side. WTF indeed. To see this WTF video, go past the break. I didn’t want to embed it just so you have proper warning for the NSFW-ish parts.

Now, if you didn’t yell out WTF at your computer screen, then you have some weird fetishes.

When you can’t figure out a math problem, make sure to always draw a Pokemon that is super powerful.  In the instance above, the student failed by using a fire type Pokemon against his teachers’ water type Pokemon. Lessons have been learned.

You’ll never know what will happen if you just throw random things in the air in video games. I wonder if I can kill someone by throwing a traffic cone.

Andrew, James, and I have been through a couple of Web Design/Development jobs in our careers. Here is some hilarious and sometimes irritating phrases or requests from clients that we have personally heard. If you’re a web designer or developer, you’ll immediately connect with this list because we’ve all been through it. The list is formatted with phrases one of us heard, then our comments on it. If you have any more to add to the list below, post it in the comments.

From James:

- That should only take you ## time right?
Yes. Because you know exactly how much time it takes to develop or design something because you have done it yourself. Don’t tell the designer/developer how long it’ll take. We’ll tell you.

- That should be easy to do/add.
Have you ever heard that saying “easier said than done?” Well this applies here. Let the designer/developer to you if it’s easy or hard and trust us on our word.  Because designing isn’t as easy as WordArt and developing isn’t as easy as drag-and-drop.

- It needs to be fully animated but under 25kb.
If you don’t understand the concept of filesize, don’t expect a designer/developer to stuff a bunch of animations and videos into your flash intro.

For more from me and Andrew, go past the break.

From Andrew:

- Make sure it’s Web 2.0
What do you consider Web 2.0?

- So, I have some changes for the site, how bout I just read them off to you and you can change them. Yes I know there is quick a few pages to the site but it’ll be real quick.
Or you could just email me a list.

- After sending a Design Comp to a client: I’ve clicked everywhere the Website isn’t working.
*Face Palm

From me:

- You’re a web designer, print shouldn’t be any different
Web and print are NOT the same.  When a web designer designs, he or she thinks about, wireframes, functionality, how developers would code such a design and usability. Print or Graphic designers think about a grid, heiarchy, the use of negative space, and concept.  They know people aren’t going to “click” on their posters or magazine.

- Lets make 5 comps for our client and let him/her choose the elements they like from each comp. It’s easy to just mix and match elements.
Mix and match?! This isn’t just a drag and drop type of designing we do.  Each comp is thought through carefully and made to flow. Mix and match?! Sure, if you want a Frankenstein type of design.

- 10pm e-mail: Need a quick one page website mock up by 10am
Thanks for the heads up. But don’t expect a great design in 1 hours time. My brain needs coffee and time to boot up by the time I get into work.

And last but not least:

- I want my sports themed website to have a stadium in the background. In that background can we animated twinkling lights all the time? As if camera flashes were going off.
No. This isn’t MySpace.

Bonus:

- Why does your comp have Spanish in it?
Wow. Just… wow. First of all, it’s not Spanish.  It’s Latin. Second, it’s placeholder copy.

Twitter user, wilw, learned the hard way that cutting too close to the product, is sometimes way too close.  wilw, managed to cut the cord when giving birth to his new headset. I say, just cut your loses and buy another. Or how about splitting the cost of buying a brand new one and try to fix the wiring yourself. Or, you can… ok ok. I’ll stop. Sorry for your loss, buddy.

Very funny song sung and animated to the tune of Dr. Mario. Watch the video above if you don’t mind getting a glimpse of Wario’s ass and Mario’s birthday suit.

After

UPDATE: Photo was removed from Google’s servers, but still lives past the break!

This is just rediculious. Twitterer “withgandana” has posted a photo of a hired model playing video games while wearing a Street Fighter 4 branded Snuggie. I say “hired model” because what gamer would seriously buy that and let someone take a photo of them wearing it and let the photo be put on a package design. To Mr. Capcom or the marketing director that signed the paper to approve of this. Seriously? Really? Why? I would like you to answer those questions please and get back to me ASAP. Thank you.
