Commented on Babytattooville 2009 - a terrific, intimate art experience
I have to say that $1800 for a weekend with artists you like, meals & hotel included, is a steal. As someone who used to attend Comic-Con regularly, you'd be hardpressed to spend less than 2 grand for the weekend,...
Commented on Geektastic: anthology of nerdy fiction and comics
Just FYI, it's Bryan Lee O'Malley, not Brendon....
Commented on Cardboard Tube Fighting League comes to NYC, Philly
I'm an Ultimate Team Cardboard Fortress Battle fan myself. http://automatedredemption.com/flavorcountry/utcfb.html...
Commented on Scam artists con Apple into killing app that tells you when the bus is due in San Francisco
Sounds like a typical Muni snafu actually. The 311 service here in SF actually bills Muni an exorbitant amount for providing next bus information to people who aren't lucky enough to own smartphones and thus have to call in....
Commented on Weird-looking dust storm in Australia
Huh. Looks like a black blizzard (thank you History Channel and Carnivale for giving me more useless trivia. Dust storms never got that bad in the part of New Mexico where I grew up, but I think that's because it...
Commented on Spot the difference: NZXT Avatar gaming mouse redesigned
I'm going with no longer ambidextrous. The mouse on the right looks curved for right hand use only....

Commented on New Obama campaign logo to debut
I love how not only is this a joke, but that a Quebec news site used the image for an article. http://www.centpapiers.com/Presidentielle-americaine-Obama-le,3180...
Commented on Jonestown death tape: audio from the last hours of a mass suicide
I had to listen to these tapes back in college for a Critical Thinking Psychology class. We were required to listen to them as evidence of the power of psychological manipulation gone horribly, horribly wrong. It's still difficult for me...

urgh, pay to hang about with artists. just plain sycophantic. For people with more money than sense. The artists also being sell outs - everyone's a loser....
LB commented on Babytattooville 2009 - a terrific, intimate art experience
It sounds interesting, but I don't think it's fair to compare it to Comic-Con--they're two different types of events for two different types of people....
Cefeida commented on Babytattooville 2009 - a terrific, intimate art experience
The price is steep...so? Artists aren't allowed to make money? If someone is willing to pay you a good price for what you do, you're a sell out? Sheesh. And I can't afford stuff like that, good grief, $1800 is so far beyond my means I'm not even laughing. But I went to the Dr. Sketchy sessions in LA, at $10, organised by the same publisher. It was awesome, I can tell you that. Art isn't made by the price, whether high, or low. Just because this thing is expensive doesn't mean it isn't any good....
Antinous / Moderator commented on Babytattooville 2009 - a terrific, intimate art experience
How is a planned event like playing murder manor with a bunch of paying guests an "authentic, unmediated experience" ? You can pay to spend the afternoon with me without knowing if I'm going to serve you Jello or kick you in the nuts. Art has content as well as form....
Pantograph commented on Babytattooville 2009 - a terrific, intimate art experience
Sounds intriguing, but I'd rather hang out with the hot girl in the neckbrace. Don't get me wrong, this would be probably be a fun weekend, (although not $1800 worth of fun) but it is a completely artificial situation. Odd. Somehow the song Private Dancer has gotten stuck in my head while reading this....
