Have you ever wondered what would happen if Pokemon R/B/Y starters became your parents? Well 4chan has taken their parenting personalities to the next level. Blastoise, Venusaur, and Charizard had evolved to have their own personalities.

First of all, Blastoise, the shining example of a good responsible parent. The type of parent that is always there for his kid. A parent who accepts his child’s differences, and always supports him on any endeavor.

Then we have Venusaur, the hippie dad who acts more like an adolescent than a parent. Very irresponsible, but liberal in upbringing and easily relates with his kids.

And lastly, we’ve got Charizard who is a terrible parent that always beats up his child. Doesn’t really care much about them and is happy to get rid of them as soon as possible:

There are many more variations of the Pokeparents, but some of them are NSFW. Well just have to settle for the RBY starters for now

Do you think your logical skills are still as sharp as ever? Then you should try to play the game of Light-Bot. Although it is a simple flash game, the rules are very familiar to all of us:

Enter the commands, and the robot will follow the instructions. The objective is simple: light up all the blue tiles.

It seems pretty simple, until you find out that there is a maximum limit on the number of commands available on the main program…

But don’t fret, the game has 2 additional command slots for using functions! Now there is where our cunning comes in: How do we finish the task without going over the maximum number of commands on the main program?

Although this game will be easy for programmers, this provides a very fun distraction and constrast to our day to day work.

You can play the game here

Although this is more of an exercise on logic, a lot of the problems are reflective of what developers encounter on a day-to-day basis. Even one of the problems was solved when I thought about the difference of linebreaks in notepad (“\n” vs “\r\n”). Its up for you to find out when the parallel happens.

The latest member of the cast for FF13 has been revealed.

In a somewhat deja vu move by Square-Enix, they have once again included a character of African descent into the main cast. Remember the last time this happened (Kiros is not a main cast)? It seems that they are trying to recreate the chemistry of FF7′s cast.

However, what’s different is that instead of a huge tough guy, they went the opposite direction and made him more likeable and charismatic character than Barret at first sight:

Who couldn’t resist a guy sporting an Afro and having a cute Chicobo calling him daddy (父)?
