Since 1.5 million of you will be calling in sick today, I thought I’d share some excuses to avoid, courtesy of CareerBuilder.com. On the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday, the only one of those that might fly would be “Employee’s wife burned all his clothes and he had nothing to wear to work“. Once you’ve come up with your lame excuse for not working today, come back for this week’s Monday Demotivators. First up: while it loads, Perfect Balance asks “are you ready to master both harmony and inferno?” A little dramatic for a moderately amusing game where you balance objects on the screen. A more reasonable question might be “are you ready to master your disdain for new-agey game soundtracks?” The game also pops up with a mildly annoying FaceBook suggestion in the lower right. After you’re suitably annoyed, you might want to try the simplistic and slightly creepy HitStick, a first person shooter that takes place in a subway. You shoot little round-headed guys in suits for no reason I could immediately ascertain. If your bloodlust isn’t sated by that one, perhaps you need a new twist on your sick interest in shooting things: BUNNIES! Shooting bunnies (even bunnies that have escaped from a research facility and are terrorizing the countryside) sounds pretty cruel until you find out what the bunnies are actually up to. Happy Super Bowl Monday!
