Some random yet (mostly) useful links for random link Friday

I couldn't find a relevant image for this post, so here's the last thing you're likely to see before you die.
We all know there are some oddball sites out there, like omfgdogs.com. WHAT ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THAT SITE?

Anyway, I thought I'd present you with sites that are unusual, but at the same time useful. Ready? Here we go!

Wolfram Alpha

Although the guy who developed it is an arrogant ass, this site is absolutely incredible. Anything you want to know about can be researched here. It will provide information on any topic, answer any equation, tell you any detail, it's knowledge is almost limitless. It is so skilled at providing an overwhelming amount of info on any topic you like that hours can be spent just discovering. Type in anything, and be amazed.

nickreboot.com

If you're around my age, and even if you're not, you may remember the good old Nickelodeon shows that used to be on. Rugrats, Hey Arnold, Ahhh! Real Monsters, Rocko's Modern Life, and many others. Well, at NickReboot, you can watch them all streaming for free! Relive your childhood!

shelterpups.com

On this site, you can send them a picture of your dog and they'll send you a plush version that looks just like it!

Pizzacodes.com

Don't eat pizza! It's bad for you. But if you must, this site lets you enter in your zip code and it will list all the pizza coupons that are available for pizza places in your area. It mainly returns Domino's and Papa John's coupons, but there are occasionally others as well.

Southparkstudios.com

You may remember in class we talked briefly about South Park, and its creators demanding control over all Internet rights to the show. Back in the '90's, the network scoffed and said 'sure,' never realizing what the Internet would become. Because of that control, you can watch all episodes ever created of South Park, online for free, but with advertising. They are in the process of rolling out a new site, so you can even test the beta if you'd like.

myfridgefood.com

Now here's a site that was built for people just like me. On this site, you can check off the random food you may have laying around in your refrigerator or kitchen, and the site will present you with recipes that can be made from the ingredients you selected. So if you're not sure what to do with a leek, applesauce, white onion, chocolate syrup, and peppered turkey, you will now!

  1. Well, I do eat pizza but I try to keep it down to once a month. I skip the red meat and try to keep it healthier with chicken and vegetables. I don't cook very often so I think that the fridgefood site would be very helpful if I were going to cook for some reason.

    1. I agree with you on the eating healthier. I think it would be nice to go on the fridge website just to see what it comes up with as for recipes.

    So the first website omfgdogs.com hurt my eyes. That site has no use what so ever. I really like the nickreboot.com website. Those cartons were the best and the ones on today just stink. Rocko’s Modern Life and Ahhh! Real Monsters were the best! A lot of these websites are unique and can really be used. The pizza one is pretty cool because you can never use too many coupons.

  3. Ok, I thought these were all great! I hate to say the one that may be my fave is shelterpups.com. I am one of those people that thinks my pet is trying to talk, or that he may feel depressed some days, and that he loves me (not just because I feed him). Personally, I would love my pooches to live on forever in stuffed glory. Again, I am sorry for this post and all who may read it!
