It's just the FBI's way of assuring you it's a legitimate email.

I just checked the FBI's site, and there's a 'Fun and Games' section~ XD

FBI just went from lame to totally awesome! I bet they spend their days making dress up flash games.

I approve.

I like the transition from "Teen and kids page" to "Tools of the trade".

Most the games look like edutainment to me. So, I don't see how it's all that weird.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

CIA has something similar too. A bigger WTF to me is that ATF has a kids' page.
http://www.atf.gov/kids/

Let me reiterate that. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.....has a kids' page.  :o

Plus, I found this inside it (emphasis added):
Quote
Download and color in some fantastic drawings in this section of the ATF Kids page! We have pictures of everything from fireworks to eagles.

Wow, fireworks all the way to eagles? That's a broad range of patriotic narm.
EDIT: Actually went in and looked, and they have a drawing of fireworks, and a drawing of the Great Seal (which has an eagle). That's it. Their usage of the word "everything", while technically correct, meets with my disapproval.  >:(

But that's the best kind of correct!

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

But it's like advertising a ham-and-cheese sandwich by saying, "It's filled with everything from ham to cheese!"

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

On topic of various federal government WTF shenanigans.

Spell "illuminati" backwards. (it's itanimulli, for the lazy) Now go to itanimulli.com.

What are you up to, NSA?

I like to think trolling, but I think somebody else just bought the domain and set it up to redirect. So there's still trolling, just not on the NSA's part.
