No Mr. President. I won. I didn’t think I would post this timesuck, but I won. Give it a try.

Timesucks
In the era of wasteful government bailouts comes a new timesuck, The Bailout Game, in which you get to play the part of Ben Bernanke at bailing out Wall Street!
Have at it!

Go hunting in Alaska with Sarah Palin in this online game. Shoot for Moose, Wolves, and Caribou as well as Russian subs, battleships, and MiGs. Points are taken away for hitting Eskimo Dog Sled Teams, Snow Machines, and John McCain. The game-play is interspersed with audio from Sarah Palin.

OK, it’s not very nice, but this Sarah Palin timesuck does have a certain addictive quality — like a low-grade, leftist college kids’ bigoted version of JK Rowling’s homepage with Sarah Palin as its target. I got a good laugh out of it, though — unlike many of my leftist friends, I have the capacity for [...]

File this one under Timesucks. In celebration of their 10th anniversary, Google has put up a version of its search engine from 2001. You can search only sites that were around in 2001, go to the current site, or view an archive of what the site looked like back in 2001. Definitely eats up a [...]

With under seven weeks until Election Day, some Electoral College map fun can be found here at Real Clear Politics. It lets you change the states from Obama to McCain and vice versa, tallying the new Electoral Vote totals as you mess with it. After about five minutes I realized this fits the description of a “timesuck” worth [...]

I love them. I hate them.
Despite the socio-political leanings of the music networks, I applaud VH1 for keeping pop culture over the last three decades alive for those who either don’t remember the formative years of Gen X or for those who just love to immerse themselves in the nostalgia. I am mostly the latter (being a kid in [...]

Ryan’s going to love this one and I’m sure those of you who were born in the 1970s will as well. Call it stupid, call it a timesuck, call it whatever you want. I call it hella sweet.

This late Saturday afternoon seems as a good time as any for an old-fashioned timesuck. This one isn’t a game but it sure is fun if done right. Enjoy!

Okay kids! Given recent headlines, now is as good a time as any. This puzzle is a new depiction of that old e-mail chain letter. Leave your guesses in the comments section, but don’t peak if you want to figure it out for yourself.

Here is an Atari timesuck. Jonah Goldberg at the Corner gets all the credit for this one. Jonah is now officially King of the timesuck.

Happy Thanksgiving to all. My gift to you is a pretty cool timesuck from the BBC where you have to hit sheep with tranquilizers.

Nothing like a timesuck on a Monday. This one isn’t hard but it’s pretty fun.

Harry Potter fans should check out JK Rowling’s official website. It’s a pretty good timesuck.

The Axis of Right loves National Review Online’s The Corner. It was our first link and remains one of the few on our site. We’ll get cracking on fixing that but I digress. One thing I both love and despise about the Corner is their inclination to post “timewasters.” In honor of my friend from [...]
