• Commented on Britain's new Internet law -- as bad as everyone's been saying, and worse. Much, much worse.
  A bill like that pushes a society closer to a complete totalitarian state which is under constant surveillance. One where its citizens can be accused of whatever illegal material the office of the Secretary of State can come up with...
• Commented on Britain's new Internet law -- as bad as everyone's been saying, and worse. Much, much worse.
  If as an audience we had the opportunity to value the movie after it was seen, this would not happen. For example, being able to walk into a movie theater and after the movie is done you could pay what...
• Commented on Was Demi Moore Ralph-Laurenized on "W" mag cover, with missing hip-flesh?
  The only way to justify the lack of flesh in that area is If you add an image of a zombie gnawing on her hip....
• Commented on 20-year old Iraqi woman dies; father ran her over for being too Westernized
  This is a sad story. IT denotes just how culture can be a good and a bad thing: To remain attached to the culture one was born or to blend in with the culture of the new country. In this...
• Commented on Nokia sues Apple over iPhone
  Apple rips Nokia's patents. Apple makes the iPhone. Apple makes you sign and agreement from jailbreaking the iPhone which they used from ripped technology. the irony....
• Commented on Searching for the skinny on Ralph Lauren ad (UPDATE: "We are responsible," says Ralph Lauren)
  No apology = No buying Ralph Lauren. simple as that....
• Commented on The criticism that Ralph Lauren doesn't want you to see!
  Dear Ralph Lauren Staff: Perhaps this is a good opportunity to look at yourselves in the mirror and realize that you have a chance to mend yourselves. Non fact based copyright take downs is the wrong way to do it....
• Commented on All publicly funded content should be in the public domain.
  I agree with that statement of " all publicly funded content should be in the public domain." IT makes no sense that the CBC would be so protective of content they administered and produced with tax payer's money. Now, that...
• Commented on Music downloading penalties are harsher than arson, theft, or starting a dogfighting ring
  Whoever pays the lawmaker forges the law. It is not based on reason, justice, fairness, morality and philosophy. It's all about the money. If someone steals a CD that is a big crime because it hurts the RIAA, Record Labels,...

  I love Sea FoOD...
• Commented on Woman books entire jetliner biz-class so her dog can fly with her
  And what about any possible allergies to dog hair from the even 1 of the rest of passengers ?. So, because she has the means she can get away with that?. It would have been even more impressive if she...
• Commented on Nicholson Baker on the Kindle
  It's really too bad that he didn't mentioned how Amazon "giveth and taketh away" if they choose too. I wonder if Jeff Bezos now sends the apology for removing ebooks from the library on the Kindle. http://www.boingboing.net/2009/07/23/jeff-bezoss-kindle-a.html The review is...
• Commented on Jeff Bezos's Kindle apology: please tell us what the Kindle can do
  That apology sounds exactly like the laughing attack he had during his interview in the daily show: FAKE. The reason, he is sorry because Amazon got busted by all the horrific things they did to their customers. The irony of...
• Commented on Goodbye
  I agree with #1...although the re-design was not for the best. I still don't read BB Gadgets since the redesign. Good luck in your endeavors Joel....
• Commented on Delving into the psyche of men who buy exfoliant advertised for use after mother-daughter threeways
  hmmm..who the heck approved this campaign. I bet they were seriously desperate to break the boundary of the 3some. They probably are looking for a shock factor but it comes out plainly stupid, simplistic. Only a tool would buy this....
• Commented on Classic Nokia games made of people
  The whole piece looks beautiful indeed. Although for one part, the ad is copying ideas from other videos using the stop motion animation. So, the technique is not original. The cube robot was cool and made sense with the concept....
• Commented on Star Wars Lucha Libre Masks
  I want one..oh..that's so wicked. and you can justify wearing the cape for the Darth Vader mask....
• Commented on Superb fan-made Green Lantern movie trailer
  A movie for Green Lantern would not be enough for the story. Perhaps mini series with the story and you can have a lot of guest writers for this. Nathan Fillion as GL is a great idea, although he does...
• Commented on "We did not know that child abuse was a crime," says retired Catholic archbishop
  hmm.. I guess this guy and all his buddies are going to spent a lot of hot, hot, hot times with morning star. What a bunch of hypocrites....
• Commented on Apple says no Project Gutenberg for iPhone because some old books are dirty
  I am still deciding which smart phone to buy this upcoming June. When I read things like this I realize that: 1. if I buy a gadget. I can consider it MY gadget. Otherwise I am just renting it and...

• Commented on Father, High on PCP, Eats Son's Eyeballs Out
  @24, It's not based on shock/relief therapy. I do see your point that life is not based on contrasts. If you read back what I wrote : "Unicorn chasers FEEL more wonderful after you read stories like this." I am...
• Commented on Father, High on PCP, Eats Son's Eyeballs Out
  This posts in BB are a good service for everybody. Unicorn Chaser's feel more wonderful after you read stories like this. Reminding you that there's beauty in such a crazy and obscure world. Unicorn chasers are a sign of hope....
• Commented on We may or may not have refreshed <em>BBG</em>
  hmm.. guess that it still looks black and white. I really don't like this design at all. I agree with all the comments that it just dissuades from reading BBG. That sucks but oh well..hopefully you guys do something about...
• Commented on We may or may not have refreshed <em>BBG</em>
  Good day to you guys , Joel and Rob. I am an avid reader of BBG, and here are my comments about the new look: 1. The black background doesn't work well. It's adding tension with the white column where...
• Commented on Kindle owners start to lose text-to-speech on purchased books -- how do DRM-free Kindle books work?
  I am not getting a Kindle until it's 100% DRM free and the authors guild writes an apology to all the people who need and use the text to speech. I hope none of those members of the author's guild...
