    Dum Games

    pickupmallot.pngOver at Hey Genius's "low-brainwidth" site you can find a plethora (three) of fantastic (dumb) games to waste your time (about a minute) on.

    First there's Mallot, which sounds like some sort of fancy French game, which it is in fact not (I keep reading the name in my head with a bad French accent). Marvel as your mallet hits a nail! Feel the rush of excitement as the metal hits metal! What will happen?! NO ONE KNOWS.

    A game called Ping is also featured. Now, I created a very similar game also titled Ping back in high school. It was on my TI-85 graphic calculator, and basically you pressed start, and either it was Ping! you win, or Ping! you lose. There was a 50/50 chance! Those are pretty good chances. This version of Ping is similar in the fact that it is horribly stupid. Yet it is so lovable!

    The final game is the jewel in the crown of Hey Genius. In Ball Game you have to use your stunning intellect to determine which cup the ball is under. Don't be fooled! It's not under the one you think it is!

    Head over to Hey Genius and check it out. The site is hilarious and there's tons of fun stuff to explore besides the horribly stupid games.
