Destroy Entire Websites With Asteroids Bookmarklet

Posted by Soulskill on from the take-that,-ads-with-sound dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Have you ever visited a website and been so frustrated by the content, layout, or adverts that you'd love to destroy it? Well, now you can. If you head on over to the erkie GitHub page there's a JavaScript bookmarklet you can drag and add to your bookmarks toolbar. Then just visit any website and click the bookmarklet. An Asteroids-style ship should appear that you can move around with the arrow keys. Press space and it will start firing bullets which destroy page content."

    Chrome 6 (and maybe 5) don't allow bookmarks on any page other than the about:blank. So you can't really get a bookmark to click and make javascript happen on the page.

      I destroyed your post in Chrome 6.0.472.63 beta. If the bookmark bar is hidden, visit the New Tab page, right-click on its bookmark bar, and click Always show bookmarks bar.

      When you say something like "fails in chrome" don't you think it would be a good idea to have actually tried it? It works fine here in chrome 6.

      Right-click the bookmark bar to toggle "Always show", or use ctrl+shift+b to show it

    Accidentally what?

    Leaving out the verb is an inside joke on 4chan.
