There I was, humbly reading the Straight Dope in lab, when from the speakers of a grad student’s computer I hear a loud “Snip! Snip!”
“Snip! Snip!” “Snip! Snip! Snip!”
I turned my head, and he was making snowflakes . “How utterly dumb!” I thought. “Whatever happened to paper and scissors?”
Then, of course, I tried it. And was instantly addicted. And so was the rest of the lab. And for the last tweny minutes, all I’ve heard is “Snip, Snip.”

Well mine is 57750, but it looks more like a Zoroastrian mystical symbol or something than it does like a snow flake. I always sucked at it in Kindergarten too. Making perfect hearts, I was the envy of every body, but my snow falkes always look industrial.
I found that site back around christmas time and let my students try it out. Then they started making naughty snowflakes…:rolleyes:
I did a few. They’re listed under my username here.
Check out my flake - 58947, it’s badass.
I have a feeling this could get addicting.
#58967. I found it kind of frustrating, though. My scissors jumped all over the place, and then it would freeze up for no reason. Maybe I just need more practice…
I’ll second that. I was cutting like a cavewoman.
I think the game should offer left-handed scissors.
Definitely addictive.
Someday, it will finish saving, and I will have a number. No luck at the moment though…
I’m number 59870 and 59905.
I think two is enough.
I think I have a new wasting-time addiction. Mine are 60391, 60414, 60434. The last one is my favorite.
I’m 60532, it looks more like a doiley though.
#61623… Behold~
Dang, this is fun! 
#61706, under irishgirl.
damn cool.
Addictive, but frustratingly difficult. I can’t believe how hard some of the other snowflake makers must have worked to get some of those designs.
I did 61829
What’s cool is you can do stuff that would tear if you did it IRL.
Mine is 61863 – I can’t get the link to work. Oh well.
Check out #62502
#67578. It’s sort of a funky, tropical snowflake
