Brain Fist. Sinfest. Surviving the World. Oglaf. Girls With Slingshots. The Perry Bible Fellowship. Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal. Xkcd. Growing Up. I was thinking of getting a couch or something for my room, somewhere for guests to lounge around.

Fuck new couches. I now have a ball pit in my room. I talked a little bit to Mike Machenry, who built a ball pit last year after reading my comic about it. The big problem with ball pits is that they’re expensive. Filling a room costs on the order of $4000, give or take. You can use this calculator (set up by relsqui of #xkcd) to find the cost for a given room. I’d use 64% for the packing efficiency — that’s about what I’ve found. So given the expense, I didn’t fill my whole room — just an area the size of the bed, to a depth of a couple feet — and even that cost as much as a reasonable couch.

But it was totally worth it. And before you jump to comment — over the last 24 hours we’ve completely exhausted all the balls-related innuendo, so you needn’t bother. Here are some more pictures: Abby, on the left, descends slowly into the balls. To the above situation, we can only say: Ctrl + Alt + Del. Least I Could Do. Bug. Hark, A Vagrant. Pictures for sad children.
