Yeah i think I got my DVD after about a week and a half or two weeks.

Interesting. I've been waiting since January 2nd, just wondering if that was normal.

Getting things around this time can be a little wonky. I ordered a camera a couple of years ago mid December and only got it near the end of the following January. The same happened with a video game last year around the same time.

I hope you get it soon though..

Here's a list of all my personal favorite Internet scary things. Pretty subjective. Maybe it'll help you wait for the next entry.

Nothing on the list is exactly obscure and I expect that everyone here is already familiar with >50% of these, but the remaining <=50% might still be new to you.

So, in no order:

1. Ted the Caver A kind of a creepypasta-before-creepypasta-existed, long story that starts slow but gradually gets scarier and scarier. Features charmingly amateurish writing (which adds to the believability), diagrams masterfully drawn in MSPaint and the infamous Ted the Caver ending. A classic.

2. His Face All Red A very effective and well made comic, atmospheric, strange and memorable. I think it was on Reddit not long ago. A short read. Have you noticed the significance of the lilacs?

3. The Dionaea House I have mixed feelings about this one. This is a story spread across several blogs, and I really enjoyed some of these, but not the others. It never got the proper conclusion, which may be a good thing. This may be the only story ever that tried to make the smell of pie horrifying.

4. Never, Ever, Go Into The Morgue Part 1, Part 2. This is my favorite /r/nosleep story.

5. The Stairs and The Doorway Another /r/nosleep story, by a pretty good author named Unxmaal. Weird, how few have heard of him.

6. SCP-087 My favourite SCP, if you've already read it, how about trying the game? Older, but a bit similar to Slender minimalistic, bare-bones short and scary little thing.

7. Internet Story If you go to creepypasta.com, you know this one. You could title it 'ToTheArk Strikes Back or, When ARGing Goes Wrong'. Not terribly scary, but pretty amusing.

8. The Things, by Peter Watts. While all the other items on the list are by semi-anonymous amateurs, this one is an award winning story by a professional author. (That does not automatically make it superior, but I think it's solid.) A plot of John Carpenter's The Thing told from the point of view of an alien. Highly recommended if you are a fan of or at least have seen the original film, otherwise it may be a bit confusing. You can chose between listening to audio or reading text.

9. The Cat with the Hands A very short and disturbing animation. It just may be a little too creepy.

I was just watching the latest (US broadcast) of Lost Girl, and they mentioned the Slender Man as an urban legend in the same breath as Bloody Mary and Sewer Gators. o.O This is the first time outside of the Toonami Slender review that I've heard someone talk about him on TV.

EDIT: By "just watching" I meant I was in the middle of watching it. He's actually in the episode.
