Don't look now! Its another dress up/ stunt bike/ missing numbers/ stick fight flash!!!
I used to have absolutely no idea how these games made it through on a consistent basis. You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones people shit out in the dozens that with the exception of some graphics are exact replicas of about 400 different games on here... Then it dawned on me... Portal Viewers Are Softies! Flash isn't judged by originality, writing, programming, etc. It all comes down to how "shiny" it is... I did a search of animals and shiny objects and the good ol' world wide web threw this at me:

"Many different types of animals are attracted to shiny objects. Primates (including humans!) love shiny things, as do raccoons and some related animals. Birds of the Family Corvidae (e.g., bluejays, crows, ravens, etc.) tend to have a strong attraction to shiny, colorful objects, too.

That's not a complete list, but it's some of the most common critters that like shiny things."

I think we can officially add portal voters to that list. Thats my rant... Any thoughts?
