Burgers are out. Generators are in.

The Generator Blog describes and links to about 190 Generator sites, where you can make all sorts of different things online: Dymo-style labels, Wisconsin city names, walking insects, Bart Simpson chalkboards, Guitar Chords, Sound effects (onomatopoeia) and more. Disclaimer: I found out about this in my HTTP logs, so while nothing here is a self-link, one of those 190 generator links is. Tiptoe carefully around it.

"Wisconsin city names" just yielded "Applemanito Du Claire."

Thanks for my first out-loud laugh all day.

BEST EXCUSES IF YOU GET CAUGHT WITH GIANFORTONI:
1. ACT LIKE GIANFORTONI IS ANOTHER MASTURBATORY OLD MAN-BELTHASAR AGAINST A FIST'S JELLYBEANS.
2. SAY " I JUST LIKE TO TORTURE RATS WITH A HACKSAW!"
3. SAY " GIANFORTONI IS FRIGHTENED!"
4. SAY " EUREKA! SCORPION MADE ME DO IT!"

Whoo, that scorpion line kills me.

Good post. I've been looking at Generator Blog for a while, because a few of my sites are on there, too. Didn't think of posting about it here, though.

All we want now is the Generator generator. (Even though this blog is quite close to it.)
