I Can Has Pictures
I've been badly addicted to I Can Has Cheezburger for a while now. Like me, those pictures are cute and funny. Unlike those pictures, I know how to grab them all! I finally got fed up with having to click next, and decided "What the hey", I can get all the URLs for the direct images! So I cooked up a quick Perl script that spits out a text file, one line for each image. Of course, once you have the aforementioned file, wget becomes your best friend. I needed a quick script success, and this little tidbit has both provided that, and given me something to do for the rest of the wee--- erm, night.

But then, their robots.txt is simply:
User-agent: IRLbot
Crawl-delay: 3600
User-agent: *
Disallow: /next/

That is, until now. Have a go at this page. Ugly as heck, but leads to cuteness. [...]
