"First they ignore you, and then they laugh at you,then they fight you, then you win." Mahatma Gandhi pic.twitter.com/RYGvPcWLVyAugustgoes to town on this here. 4. The Dragon Tax Return Simulator  Not spending enough time filling out tax returns? Fill that A4 paperwork-shaped gap in your soul with a web game that simulates the process for you…with the assist of a dragon. If only you had a trusty fire-breather to assist you navigate the bureaucratic nightmare of dealing with the IRS IRL. 5. Behold the McWhopper
Two fast food frenemies, or Burger King and McDonald's,are making a burger together in the name of world peace. They will join forces to dash a restaurant selling the McWhopper, an exquisite blend of the Big Mac and the Whopper. This artistic collaboration nearly trumps Taco Bell’s dystopian summer advertising campaign, or which mysteriously disappeared off the internet after its critical acclaim.
