• Commented on Demi claims missing hipflesh is for real. But $5,000 says it's Moore photoshopping.
  1. I don't find it too hard to believe that it's just the indentation where her leg meets her hip. 2. We as a species are paying way too much attention to this....
• Commented on Guy mounts coffee cup on car roof, tweets about peoples' reactions
  Ha! People who see a stranger with a minor problem and try to help that person are such idiots! They deserve our scorn and derisive laughter! Jesus, folks. We're trying to have a civilization here. This moron is just one...
• Commented on Cataloging the lies in Palin's "Going Rouge"
  I'm no feminist scholar, but it seems clear that the Palin phenomenon is a direct consequence of entrenched cultural patriarchy. As near as I can tell, the only reason anyone has ever heard of Sarah Palin is because she's hot....
• Commented on Good 80s postpunk music from The Men with No IQ's
  I just sent this to a friend who worked at W.C. Don's in the '80s. Her response: Holyfuckinggod!! I loved those guys! I've never been able to remember their names. They played at Don's when I worked there; I thought...
• Commented on People speak out on library censorship incident: “It’s dangerous to democracy when an interest group imposes its views on another.”
  Someone should make her watch "2 Girls 1 Cup," then see if Alan Moore still offends her....
• Commented on Maricopa deputy steals defender's paperwork during a court case
  One wonders how the captioners managed to misspell "counsel" twice, in two different ways ("council" and "counsil"), in such a short time. Also: IAAL, and if some moron did this to me I'd be livid....
• Commented on How to make an electric bass guitar from a 2X4
  Mark is officially my favorite BoingBoinger. Thanks for the link; I know what the special bassist in my life is getting for Christmas! (Maybe Christmas 2015; I'm not the world's handiest person.)...
• Commented on Slo-mo demolition of iconic Philadelphia Drexel smokestack
  Watch it in full-screen HD: You can see the shiny building next to it shimmy when the shockwave hits it. Bad ass....

• Commented on Y2K ten years later
  I was unemployed and horribly broke that summer, then I lucked into a contract editing job putting together training materials on how to prepare your small business for Y2K. We had government money and Microsoft money behind us, and I...
• Commented on Sweet, inadvertent Sesame Street PSA for gay marriage
  That is pretty much the cutest little kid I've ever seen....
• Commented on Panoramic view from a tongue
  The first example I can recall of the shot from inside a mouth was on a fairly early Simpsons episode. Lisa is at the doctor getting checked out (maybe it's when she had mumps?) and there's a tongue-depressor shot from...
• Commented on Thieves who stole from child get a public shaming
  You're right; I was misreading your previous post. Sorry. Nonetheless, while the idea of stealing from a child on his/her birthday appalls the conscience, I don't see how the crime is mitigated by them not knowing those things. They didn't...
• Commented on Thieves who stole from child get a public shaming
  someguyyouvenevermet: I just read the article that is linked to and it turns out they found two gift cards in the store and tried to spend them. They had no idea they were lost by a nine year old or...
• Commented on Goldwag: Some thoughts about 9/11 Truth
  Mojave: Have you done any research into this story, or do you automatically believe that the US Government would never, ever, ever lie to you? Do you know what a false dilemma is, or do you fart in the bathtub...

• Commented on After the Game: What Happens to the Losing Team's Swag?
  That's not the one I was thinking of (I think it was on espn.com), but it makes the point....
• Commented on Instructions for building an autonomous sentry gun
  @Scuba SM: What does case law say about less-than-lethal versions? I don't know off the top of my head, but it's still a very bad idea. There's a principle in (U.S.) common law called the Eggshell Skull Rule: If your...
• Commented on After the Game: What Happens to the Losing Team's Swag?
  I read something about this a few years ago. I remember the article pointed out that somewhere in Africa, there's probably a kid who thinks the Bills won four straight Super Bowls. @Darren Barefoot: It's OK to talk about sports...

• Commented on Taste test: Togarashi
  By the way, be careful with the hot-pepper-in-mittens thing. If you handle a chili pepper with bare hands, such as inside a glove, and then touch your eyes or other, ah, "sensitive areas," you will find yourself in a world...
• Commented on The woman who can't stop orgasming
  I'm kind of amazed that anyone would try to joke about this. Did y'all actually read the post, or just see the word "orgasm" and immediately start typing?...
• Commented on Moon bombing is bad, for it will make the aliens very angry indeed.
  @Anonymous regarding the UN Treaty: Where did you get your quote about the experiment being "contrary to space law prohibiting environmental modification of celestial bodies"? I'm not convinced that moving a couple tons of dirt around counts as "environmental modification."...
