Similar reactions when I brought them to my sociology class... including from my professor who laughed and admitted to being a longtime participant. I think this holiday is a fine idea.

It definitely doesn't work in firefox on windows either at the moment, I've tried it on several windows computers. By the way, whoever made the site, it's amazing and this is a wonderful idea!

Haven't checked FF in Windows yet, so I don't know. I didn't make that site, so I can't fix it, but until it get's fixed, I'd recommend using a webkit-based browser such as Safari or Google Chrome, both of which are free. FYI, it's not a javascript issue, it's a html issue, and i'm not sure which browser is rendering it 'correctly', but i do know that webkit page rendering is making the links work.

What am I doing wrong? I used someone's iphone to access the website and the links worked fine, but I want to print off the stickers and can't until I can find a way to get the links to work on a computer. Am I missing some kind of java update or something....? I can’t get any of the links on the website to work on any of the computers I’ve tried… they just act like aren’ t links at all.

I can't ethically steal from the pockets of my bosses; they're so lenient! A job where you can pretty much punch in and out as you desire, and another one where I just drive around or sit and read, eat some Chinese food, and wait to get my cash from the wealthy yuppies in Lewisville...I can't exactly complain...now, maybe if I still worked for GameStop, or Panera, or Quizno's, or *bleh* Spencer's...oh, I'd be in Employee Theft Paradise!
