Games that can pass the time at work

So I've decided to compile a list of games that are good for passing time at work.  These games will be quick and easy to start and don't really have a story line, this is to ensure you don't get too attached to the game and will be easy to close down when the boss comes around.


 Jumpit 2
You run and jump, how hard could it be?

My personal best so far.

Canabalt

More running and jumping, with a bit of strategy...






My personal best so far.



Too Many Ninja's
No seriously, there's just TOO MANY!


Tank Trouble
Easy, but fun

I will add to the list as I find new games.

Have you ever played Jumpit 2?

Well I have! lol, but seriously it is fricken addicting.  Me and my friend are playing side by side and he keeps trying to beat my high score but is failing miserably, haha.  Anyway I just thought i would recommend it for those long boring days at work.  Ill try post a picture of my high score soon.

I used to own a Honda s2000 which I ended up turbo'ing, I built that car on a budget and didn't get the results I was looking for.  I one day hope to buy another s2000 and build that the way I want it to be built, this video is an inspiring video for a turbo s2000 build and one of my favorite videos.  Some people who see this video think that the driver is unskilled and cant drive the car right because he is hitting the rev limiter a lot, however in reality he is very skilled and he is driving the car the way he is supposed to.

The purpose of my blog

So my blog name doesn't really have a meaning per say, but the main purpose of my blog is to just post things that I enjoy and would maybe like to comment on.  For the most part, the content that I will be posting about will be BBoying, and most things to do with cars.  Videos I find interesting or unique or maybe pictures and one day a full build thread about my 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe, so as you can see there will not really be a theme to this blog but more of just whatever comes to mind.

BBoying has been around for a long time!

Breaking or b-boying, commonly called breakdancing, is a style of dance that evolved as part of hip-hop culture among Black and Latino American youths in the South Bronx during the 1970s.  It is danced to both hip-hop and other genres of music that are often remixed to prolong the musical breaks.
Four basic elements form the foundation of breaking. The first is Toprock, a term referring to the upright dancing and shuffles. The second element is Downrock which refers to footwork dancing performed on the floor. The third element is the Freeze, the poses that breakers throw into their dance sets to add punctuation to certain beats and end their routines. The fourth element is the Power Moves. These are the most impressive acrobatic moves normally made up of circular motions where the dancer will spin on the floor or in the air.
The term breakdancing, though commonly used, is frowned upon by those immersed in hip-hop culture because the term was created by the media to describe what was called breaking or b-boying in the street. The majority of the art form’s pioneers and most notable practitioners refer to the dance as b-boying.




So if you hear someone refer to BBoying as "Breakdancing" please kindly inform them of the most common and most correct term to describe this form of dancing.
