The Hypo TGIF Thread

For all non-TGIF initiates, it means "Thank George It's Friday" (there's a non-nontheistic version of that phrase, too).

So this thread is for posting stuff that is related to end-of-terribly-hard-week stuff. Only links to extraordinarily cool sites will be accepted and the moderators will hit you HARD if it's not funny, relaxing, spirit-enhancing, fascinatingly mind-boggling (and preferably a good alternative to v!agra).

Or, just something you'd like to share.
