Fuck Off Fridays: Oregon Trail

YoungNotions is instating a new weekly theme… Fuck Off Fridays.

We used to have desk jobs. We know what Friday is like. You hit about 3pm or so and no other work is getting done for the rest of the day. You spend the last couple hours looking up the same LolCats or maybe the best in Harlem Shake.

Which isn’t much. Our readers deserve better ways to piss away a Friday afternoon of work. And so we lazy slackers bring you the best in non-confrontational ways to stick it to the man.

And we’re starting with Oregon Trail.

Going back to 1985...

Going back to 1985…

I’m not going to describe the game to you. Either you know Oregon Trail or… huh. I can’t think of a single instance where you wouldn’t know Oregon Trail. Not even one.

Now, I’m old. So when I think Oregon Trail, I think of the Apple IIe version where the guy didn’t move. You just had to hit the spacebar when the deer was about a third of the way through the screen. Virtual Apple is an online emulator that has a good selection of old school games, but most of them are the later versions. This one is a little after my time. Because I’m old.

Now, it does require you to install things, which I remember from way back is not a thing all companies let you do. But don’t worry corporate drone. I have a game for you. Unless your employer has outlawed flash. In which case, have fun with your cat pictures.

It’s called Organ Trail, and it’s exactly like Oregon Trail except zombies.

You shot 1900 pounds of meat, but could only bring back BRAAAAAIIINSSSS!!!!!
