    Some may contain flashing images and/or are NSFW.

    Wikipedia in fact, has a whole page created for the sole purpose of procrastination. Here's some examples of what you'll find:

    A town that's been on fire since 1962
    The Greater Green River Intergalactic Spaceport
    An Australian mining town where everyone lives underground because it's too hot and drop bears are dangerous
    Drop Bears
    Communist Mutants From Space, American video game propaganda at it's best
    A man who won a lot of money by memorizing blinking lights
    Helicopter Music Squad
    Use the Force, for music
    You have a webcam cuz coffee pot
    It's on fire
    The Book of Mozilla
    Why dolls/androids/demonic teddy bears are creepy
    Floating nuclear power stations, cuz Russia
    The world's oldest cricket ball(?)
    You can't turn off your alarm if it runs away!
    Digital Sundial. Welcome to the future
    Colonel-in-Chief of the Norwegian Royal Guard
    Listen to the colours!
    Professor A's Law was not invented by Professor A
    People get things wrong
    HTCPCP
    Quid
    The Adventures of Kevin Rudd, Australia's greatest hero
    The Adventures of Kevin Rudd series 2

    I realize the Adventures of Kevin Rudd are low quality, but you should be able to find individual videos for most episodes that are higher quality.

    Also, the one about drop bears is a comforting lie to hide the disturbing truth. Behold, the truth.

    I'd just like to point out that Clocky is a terrible idea.


    It underestimates the dedication of a truly dedicated snoozer. I have, on occasion, been observed to completely rearrange my room in order to turn the alarm off, and then gone back to sleep, good job well done.

    The next version of Clocky will deliver a moderate electric shock upon touch.
