Yeah I said it. I have a Pintrest account, but it's okay I swear to god. Turns out it's not entirely a social media platform for women to share cupcake recipes, pictures of babies, and dresses they like (though that seems to make up about 80% of what's out there). It turns out there's actually a pretty solid community of gamers out there who are pinning and sharing some pretty cool stuff.
Before I get ahead of myself there's probably a few of you going, "what the hell is Pintrest?" Pintrest is a social media platform that really started to catch on a few months ago. It's not for posting commentaries, long rants, or mindless 1 setence updates on what you're doing at that very moment. Instead it's more or less picture and video based where people find things they like, "pin it" on their boards and then let each other look at what's on their board. You can either pin or simply like things on other people's boards, or you can find other pictures from other websites and pin them onto your board. . . . fuck you, I like it. DON'T JUDGE ME!!!
Anyway I wanted to show off a few of the boards I've put together over the past few months. There's some cool stuff on there that I think a few of you will actually get a kick out. Some old game ads, artwork, and some genuinally funny shit... much of which I've actually been sharing here for the past month. If you've got the time to kill you might get a kick out of some of this.
The game art is amazing.
Where are you finding the old ads? I habe a few hundred old magazines I'll scan in for posterity when I get old EDIT: [older] and have the time.
Cake recipes, dresses? Sounded awesome until I saw "social media".
I remember that ad.
Did anyone else actually play Diakatana? It was just an awful, awful game. It makes that ad that much better.
Then you're more or less like every other friend I have. I swear to god i'm cool!!!
