Desperate times call for desperate measures, and in this case--a whole lot of time playing around with a spreadsheet!
Japanese twitter user yamatojiline103 posted the following Tweet recently (which has become wildly popular) spelling out a drawing dilemma he had:
Which translates to "I want to draw a picture on my computer. But I don't have the money to buy software. I guess I'll just do it on Excel."

After noticing it's popularity, he uploaded a video tutorial of him doing it again! Unfortunately you need registration and login information to see it, but the below Tweet is a preview of his second attempt. What's more, he finished it in under thirty minutes.
