Cerebral NEATLinks: Defective Yeti
It’s time for me to roll out my new blog series: Cerebral NEATLinks. This is a rip-off an emulation of other bloggers who have similar features, usually once a week or so. It’s a brilliant idea, since it allows us bloggers to be lazy and unmotivated in the guise of “giving props” or “providing support” to other blogs/sites that they “greatly respect.” Pro tip: we just don’t want to have to do any real work in thinking up and writing something original, intelligent (Q: How can you tell it’s Friday afternoon? A: You need spellchecker to catch the fact that you misspelled “intelligent”), and thought-provoking. Ok, not really. I personally do enjoy the other sites I’ve linked to in the past (and if you haven’t visited Layer Tennis lately, do so and check out their season 2 compilation video).
Today, I present Defective Yeti, brainchild of one Matthew Baldwin. Matthew is a brilliant and incredibly funny writer, and though his updates have been sporadic as of late due to a massive internet project involving David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest,” his blog is your go to site for humor, board games, and random nerdiness/snark. Most of the people who read my blog would certainly appreciate the (unofficial) screenplay he wrote for The Office. It captures the spirit of the show amazingly well, and if you enjoy The Office you should take a look. Why pick Defective Yeti as the day’s NEATLink? It’s Friday, and everyone could use a laugh for the weekend. Enjoy!
