This week's links highlight some of the more annoying aspects of everyday Internet life (and a random video about the NES). If you've found something you think other IT pros will appreciate, send an e-mail to [email protected] so we can include it in next week's edition. Also, keep up with us all week long on Twitter.

Batman vs. Internet (Collegehumor.com) – If only the Caped Crusader could have unplugged the cable...
An Old Friend (YouTube.com) – I don't know why I don't make time for my old NES that's collecting dust in my closet. Oh yea, work.
