Case of the Mondays Cure – Technology Violence Proves a Point

Looking a bit down in your end of February work schedule? Thinking that you might go a little Office Space if you don’t get some kind of release at the start of your work week?

Well, never fear, Overly Positive is here with yet another Case of the Mondays Cure. This time around, I found this really neato article off of a co-worker’s post in Google Buzz (see, it’s useful already). Apparently, one professor out there has a pretty strict policy on gadgets and tech devices in class, including laptops. But how do you prove that you might enforce such a policy with brutal efficiency? Simple – a visual aid:

Well – I’m convinced. Notebook and pen it is!

Case of the Mondays Cure – All Boxed In

The day after Valentine’s is usually a path strewn with empty candy boxes and discarded flower food packets. In these cases, when couples return to a bit of a normal routine and single people breathe a sigh of relief, there’s always a return to the normal, and in some cases, the hilarious.

So whether you felt off about your Valentine’s Day, or you just treated it as another lazy Sunday, I think you’ll appreciate a little randomness involving boxes from our friends at Collegehumor. Check it out:

Case of the Mondays Cure – Star Wars, the Summary (Remastered Edition)

We near the end of the month of January, and going to work or school might seem like it’s the total dumps. When you’re freezing your ass off, finding out there’s no parking, and figuring out how to make it through the day without becoming a total zombie, it’s hard to think of things that are fun and entertaining.

Not to worry, folks, because College Humor decides to soothe your Monday blahs with a little original vid paying homage to Star Wars, an IP guaranteed to bring you into the theaters and make you smile. Still, with all the re-re-re-edited and re-re-re-re-…er, redone stuff, you might seem lost about what has changed. Don’t worry though – the below video will be your beacon of light in your darkened re-edited Star Wars ignorance. Have a good one, folks!

Case Of The Mondays Cure – Lame Is Cool

Yes, yes, my dear readership, it’s Tuesday, not Monday, but for those of you who observed the Martin Luther King holiday yesterday (even to the point of not entering a blog post, oops), today is the beginning of the week.

The Monday doldrums are often found in the form of Facebook, where tired, exhausted, hungover, and otherwise zombie-fied folks chat about the weekend, the sadness of being at the bottom of another mountain of a week, and how they’re coping. The gift of insta-updating from virtually anywhere means we get to hear about these woes right away, and sometimes the collective misery of Monday-bound individuals is almost too much to bear.

Still, though, there is a beacon of light, and it’s found in the realm of the Lame. Lamebook seeks to catalog the hilarious and the awful of Facebook, and it never tends to disappoint even on a late beginning of the week like today. You should definitely check out all the latest entries at the site, especially on Tuesday, when typos make their way over:

My inner English major cries out to help these people.

Have a good short week, everyone!

Case of the Mondays Cure – Pop Medley Madness

Tired after all that Christmas cheer and gift giving (and receiving)? Feeling the drag of work after a long layoff? Not to worry, because New Year’s is just a few short days away, heralding with it a brand new year with brand new possibilities (and a lot more Mondays).

What better way to celebrate the end of the year than with a mashup of popular songs that geeks like us claim we don’t listen to? The technical prowess it took to put together the below mashup of the Top 25 Songs of 2009, via College Humor, is impressive no matter if you love Lady GaGa and the Black Eyed Peas or would rather throw them into a volcano. Check it out – and try to groove your way through this dreary Monday with a bunch of songs that will surely get stuck in your head on the drive home:

Case of the Mondays Cure – Facebook For The Holidays

As if doing it with Star Wars characters wasn’t enough, College Humor is back with a few status updates on good ol’ Saint Nick. It’s it great that technology can modernize even an old guy who works one day a year?

I know this week is especially stressful so close to the holiday, but hopefully your holiday Mondays find a smile knowing Santa has his own troubles to deal with…

Case of the Mondays Cure – Glee-ful Goodness

The holiday season is upon us, and with it, the requisite holiday stress. Still, there’s nothing like a good song and a feelgood moment to warm the heart, however briefly. And there’s no other show that does that quite as well right now as Glee.

Even if you’ve never seen the show, this ending to the last part of the mid-season is still kinda sweet to see. This is admittedly low quality, but hey, you take what you can get. So unless you have a piece of coal for a heart, check this out to cheer up your Monday:

Case Of The Mondays Cure – True Sappiness

Past the holiday, and feeling guilty about too much turkey this weekend? Not to worry – I’m sure if you did gain a few pounds, there’s always New Year’s Resolutions to work off that mashed potato-fueled gut, right?

Anyway, this week’s pick-me-up is brought to you by the cast of Glee. Sure, cheesy songs are not always a great uplifter, but these guys seem to make even the campiest song have meaning.

Case Of The Mondays Cure – K-Pop Krazy

Sure, you might be wondering a few things on this dreary Monday – how you’re going to exercise off all those pounds you’ll be gaining at Thanksgiving, how you’re going to make it through the holiday week without killing someone, or how you will be able to survive Black Friday without being whacked. But forget all that for a moment, just to see that at least over in the K-Pop world, everything is all dancy sunshine and rainbows.

When a butt dance gets a remix, you know music has come far.

Case Of The Mondays Cure – Minions Have Feelings Too

Another Monday, another drab beginning of the week – but never fear, OP is here with funny stuff to start it off.

If you’ve ever had a job or are currently in the workforce, you know there’s nothing as therapeutic as a bitch session with your co-workers. Well, you’re not the only ones who need it…
