easy (like sunday morning)

So I updated the TODO file, and figured as a fun little tidbit I'd finish something I'd been working on in my spare time.
The truly random YTMND Creator (almost assuredly nsfw).
Check inside for more info.
What this magical little page does is take 4 random sites, and grabs different info from each, image, sound, text, placement and background information and then combines them to make an entirely new YTMND.
With sound and image, this makes 185,938,500,298 possible combinations.
Throw text into the mix and it turns into roughly 5,555,470,511,903,644 possible combinations.
The most amazing thing I noticed when I first made it was that half of the stuff I ended up seeing was better than most users' "serious attempts" at making a YTMND.
Anyway, I made it so you can click the drop-down and get the origins of each asset as well as the ability to directly link to site combinations that you like.
Have fun with that.

max has the power to change the course of history here. This isn't a democracy. If it bugged him like it bugs me (or hank, or sitsu) he'd just delete the site simply because notdsk is already being a c*cky twat wart about the whole thing. If these situations continually bring in users who aren't invested here, and drive away those that are, it's an easy choice: what good is a "popular" site that sucks? Anyone been on Friendster in two years?
so, i try to follow th e rules and i self-NSW my own sites when appropriate, but if they get on UAC they sit there for 2 days, because next to noone has changed their options to allow NSW sites to show on the main page... i miss ytmnsfw.com now. max, maybe you should just make a note about the options in your next news post.
So I finally saw 300...what a f*cking piece of sh*t that was. I've seen bus shelter ads with better plot development, Jackson Pollack paintings with better editing, and god damn middle school pogs games with more logic and suspense. If nothing else, someone want to explain why the fiercest fighters of Greek history all speak like accent coaches from the set of Braveheart. I'd rather they made a Ziggy movie the next time they want to bring a classic "graphic novel" to the big screen. F*cking hell...
