I just couldn't help myself after reading it. So if you haven't read it, first: go here. read it. hover text, too, because you have to, every time. not that that part is relevant.
Then go play Hell:

jayisgames featured a game a while ago that had some of the same nature, while being, y'know, a game rather than a joke. You had to stack up a tower of Tetris blocks. They were on the grid until they landed, but after that there was a physics model in effect, which could cause blocks to fall off, or the entire tower to collapse. I can't remember its name, though.
So the point is you can't win. :) Interesting.
Lingolux has also reposted it.
Geekosystem is looking for you.
"Alas, we couldn’t find any info on the creator of the game; if you know or are the person who whipped this together, we’d love to hear from you."
