Commented on North Korea's first beer commercial
I suppose youTube doesn't actually tell you what the restrictions are when you embed a video, so I'm not going to complain as strongly as when the editors post a Hulu or Comedy Central video... but still, super lame. Not...

Commented on Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! season three DVD out soon
I keep going to the Adult Swim site and try to watch clips of these guys but it keeps saying that I'm not allowed to watch because I'm a dirty Canadian, so I dunno, I guess I'm not allowed to...

Dear Boing Boing editors, Could you please, please not link or embed region-locked video? You are a blog. You live on the Internet. The Internet recognizes no foreign borders. It views censorship as damage and routes around it. It abhors...

mechko commented on Plaices of Death
Whether Godel will allow me to reason or not is not particularly important, methinks. I don't think eating a fish alive has anything to do with playgrounds. What I was referring to was that saying that YOU cannot do this in Asia because we in America don't like it is a little arrogant. Unless you can prove that there is an absolute ethical system. I'm not sure that you can, either. I have no problem with saying that this is wrong, but I do have a problem with saying that I am absolutely correct. @Dante -- you are suggesting, then,...

What I was referring to was that saying that YOU cannot do this in Asia because we in America don't like it is a little arrogant. Do you apply that to female infanticide, bride burning, stoning rape victims, etc. Or is it relative moral relativism?...

Yes I do. Prove to me that it is wrong, and I will go and assassinate the people who perpetrate these injustices. Unfortunately, I don't think you can without a subjective normative judgment or a lot of work. The best you can do is implement strong mobility to allow people to leave these places. I am not supporting or condoning female infanticide, bride burning, the stoning of rape victims, etc. But you have to be able to prove that the presumptions that lead to these actions are inferior to a set that does not lead to these actions, or that...

You said: "it's a sad and horrific and a typical example of human hubris towards the rest of the planet." We are definitely NOT the Superior Beings on this planet, are we!...

I'm Chinese and this is anything but funny... I may like my fish fresh, but not THAT fresh! That's just simply, cruel and barbaric. Well done China, I'm now ashamed to be Chinese. It's even not comforting in the least to know that fishes do not have a specific region in their cerebral cortex to feel pain....
