Good distraction.

So I'm a huge procrastinator. Actually - I don't procrastinate, I reschedule. So you might notice a lot of pages that can be distractions popping up on here. This is one of those.

Rag Doll Avalanche 2
is great. Its a really simple game that I happened upon in my quest for things to take me away from studying. It is, however, wickedly addicting. The point of the game is to use your arrow keys to move the little man around and avoid the falling spikes. Sounds simple, right? Well, he acts like a ragdoll. This means that little motions cause him to fly around like crazy, making it that much harder to miss the spikes. On top of this, the spikes can cut off parts of his arms and legs, and as far as I can tell, this unbalances him and makes his movement even more erratic. The goal is to survive as long as possible, and considering the above elements it is harder than you might think. A game doesn't last much more than a minute at most, and you will keep coming back for more. I highly recommend this for a simple, fun distraction. Don't plan on getting much done if you are playing around with this little app.
