| Woman Kills Her Own Baby Son Over Facebook’s ‘Farmville’ Game
A 22-year-old woman in Jacksonville, Florida named Alexandra V. Tobias has pleaded guilty in the death of her 3-month-old son, Dylan. The reason for such a despicable act? She tells investigators that she was busy playing the highly popular Facebook game, Farmville, when the child started crying. She explains that she became so angry, she shook the baby, went and smoked a cigarette to try and calm down, and then shook the baby more. She also added that while she was shaking him, he might have hit his head on something. Tobias has been charged with second-degree murder, and could face up to life in prison…though it is noted that this sentence could be much, much less because “state guidelines” place the charge at 25-50 years imprisonment.

| You’ve Heard About ‘Human Centipede’ The Movie — Now Play The Game! |

I have not seen the shocking new torture porn horror film, Human Centipede. In fact, it might just be the first movie I never see simply based just on what I’ve heard or read about the movie so far…unless curiosity gets the best of me, that is. Horror movies are some of the most fun you can have when it comes to watching, but when the fun is removed and the only goal is to make you as uncomfortable as possible, that’s where this fan usually loses all interest. Nevertheless, that shouldn’t stop us from having fun now, should it? The folks over at I-Mockery had this very same perspective, and it lead to the creation of Human Centipede: The Game! Throw on your doctor’s coat and grab a scalpel or shot gun and head on over to the other side to find out where to play Human Centipede: The Game. This is all in 8-bit and rather silly, but some may still find it offensive for some reason, so a NSFW is in effect here.

| Geek Fun: Decipher Empire’s Cryptic Movie Canvas |
Empire Magazine has been throwing quite the birthday party for themselves after turning an impressive 20-years old recently. Along with some great movie stories and information, the magazine has now created The Cryptic Canvas, and they’re inviting you to come on over and see if you have the ultimate movie knowledge it takes to de-crypt the cryptic!
Basically, it’s one giant painting, and on this giant painting are 50 different things that depict a movie title. You look around, then click it on an image in the painting and a box opens where you type in the movie title. The site promises that all films come from the past twenty years to coincide with their 20th anniversary, but be warned, I did find at least one sneaky sneaky one that slipped in. I know your tricks, Dewey. After figuring out that these weren’t literally translated, I was personally able to get about half deciphered before hitting the proverbial wall. Since then it’s been a slow, pecking process toward the completion of this master movie puzzle.
