Stressed out: Here's a cute site that, unless you are a mean-spirited troll capable of neither imagination nor humour, will make you smile idiotically and make other people come look at it. It's a simple stress test - look at a picture of two dolphins and find out your stress level right there and then. Put yourself to the test at http://webpages.charter.net/hkirtley/stress/.

Bitter: So there's this guy. His name is Maddox. Every few days for the last five years, Maddox fires off angry missives complete with illustrative graphs, on a variety of subjects including PETA, becoming a cam whore and how to prove you're an asshole by wearing faded jeans: "How cool, a strip of white going down your pant legs."

Sure Maddox is a crackpot who portrays himself as a hook-armed pirate - but his suggestions on how to improve The Matrix: Reloaded are spot on. Like replacing Keanu Reeves with a wooden plank with a mean face on it. More at http://maddox.xmission.com.
