Commented on Woman who couldn't stop itching
What would be really fascinating is if the part of the brain that was causing the itching was the part of the brain damaged by the scratching. That part of the brain was defective so another part of the brain...

Commented on Spiders make traps using light
@Strider MT2K GROAN!!! I love it!...
Commented on Debunking the climate-change denialists' talking-points
I'm not taking sides but riddle me this: How does one explain global warming to a nay sayer that lives in the Washington Cascades when snow pack is 150 - 200% of average and temperatures have been very cold for...
Commented on Photo of "prostate cancer cookies"
The next time I'm having a physical my doctor better not offer me a "prostate cookie."...
Commented on Steampunk R2-D2 tee (steampunk! steampunk! steampunk!)
So that's what Kenny Baker looks like......
Commented on Giant working NES controller/coffee table
Truly Ultra Awesome....
Commented on Craftsman's $8600 everything toolkit
It depends on what you use the tools for. If my career was in construction by all means would I get the best stuff, but for my occasional use I have been very happy with this brand....
Commented on Craftsman's $8600 everything toolkit
I so wish I could afford to buy this as a Christmas gift for a friend or relative. Watching the shear bewilderment of the individual receiving the gift and then trying to figure out where to store the tools would...
Commented on Photo from the Paris Catacombs
Cities of the Underworld showed this on their Paris episode. Absolutely amazing....
Commented on Droog's Do Hit Chair, complete with sledgehammer
I was sold until I realized that it didn't come with ear plugs. What a rip off....

In the pipe, five by five....
Commented on Gasoline to cost $10 a gallon in US soon?
Economics 101: Increase in demand = Increase in price. Decrease in demand = Decrease in price. As long as my neighbor and many others insist on using their Ford F-350s as commuter vehicles, which gets about 10 miles per gallon,...

Will someone turn off that fracking music?...
Commented on Untitled 1
I call for unrestrained panic....

I, for one, welcome our non-posting overlords. So say we all....

Try to get those through airport security....
Commented on Experiment: 96% of passers-by ignore famous artist's street painting
I think all it means is that he's not very famous....
Commented on Citizen issues parking ticket to cop
Although I appreciate the fact that cops should obey the laws just like everyone else, this is carrying it too far. I don't think Mr. Bryant has the public's best interest in mind. I think he simply saw an opportunity...
Commented on Clock sculpture with more than 150 analog hands spells out the name of the hour
I like that. Very creative. If you run it backwards will we see secret backtracked messages?...
Commented on Clothing designed to fight back against intentionally uncomfortable furniture
I think it's funny. Can a cop bust someone for sleeping on a bench that was designed for no sleeping? Is the bench now false advertising? Was the city duped? Who paid for these benches and who approved their purchase?...
Commented on Children's book about plastic surgery
Yes! Let's all harass the doctor just like "'Net bullies target Chinese student participants in pro-Tibet protests!" http://www.boingboing.net/2008/04/16/net-bullies-target-c.html...
Commented on 8-year-old boy suspended for sniffing marker
When I was a kid, they made markers that you were supposed to smell. Red smelled like strawberry, yellow like banana, orange like orange, etc. I think they were called "Magic Marker Liquid Banana."...
Commented on Weird photoshop blunders
I wonder if there is someone standing behind her. To the right of her belt is some fabric that looks like the torso of the second person, with their right arm extended behind the subject's head. If the "third" arm...
Commented on Bike racers line up for bio-break
So if I do my duty off of a bridge I get cuffed and stuffed by the authorities. However, if I put on Technicolor tights, a helmet and have a bike nearby with 20 others dressed the same way, it's...
Commented on FoxClocks: global time plugin for Firefox
I've been using this for about a year now and it's my fave rave plugin. Easy to use....

@Arkizzle: Lol. Sorry I probably shouldn't have opened that Pandora's Box, although I doubt I'm the only one thinking that. I guess we can try and close the lid and hope nothing comes out through the crack... Anyway, I think the discussion's moved on, and most of the "regulars" are kinda fading into the background. One opinion I have is that by banning Takuan, the Boingers are laying their community down on the ground, putting a pistol to its head, and pulling the trigger. All that will remain will be the twitching of a slowly cooling corpse. Well, that's melodramatic,...

Mother of Mercy! Is this the end of Untitled 1?...
buddy66 commented on Untitled 1
"Banish plump Jack and banish all the world." I've enjoyed y'all's company the past couple of years and have had a thousand laughs. BB was a bright spot in a dark time and I am properly grateful. I rarely added to this thread, although I engaged in some spirited exchanges elsewhere, and I always checked it out as a sort of bulletin board. I will continue to check in and lurk about on occasion but have decided to otherwise end my participation in BB's community. This business with Takuan is too much for me... It's time to transfer out of...
arkizzle / Moderator commented on Untitled 1
Damn Buddy, sad to see you go. You added a fine, true tone to the noise. Hope you'll drop back when it suits. You'll be missed....
ridl commented on Untitled 1
you know there's something about it all that no one talks about, or at least I haven't spent that much time mulling over, and that is that even if we fail even if the species dies and the planet is set back hundreds of millions of generations and all the languages are lost we can't fail we can't be lost and it's just not true because our timeline is one of infinite and somewhere we make it somewhere some iteration of me and you and everyone every decision I make somewhere I make the decision that I would make if...
