Commented on C graffiti
The other week I was at a pub and saw that someone had scrawled a symbolic logic proof on the bathroom wall. I corrected it, adding a line they skipped, and put at the bottom 'SHOW YOUR WORK!'...

Commented on Everything you need to know about dubstep
Great to see dubstep get a BB mention! I agree with atman above: If you're tiring of the UK dubstep sound, check out what the west coast - particularly SF Bay - is going with the sound. There are fantastic...

Commented on LittleBigWatch: danteneverdies channels Prodigy, Justice, LittleFlatEric in mega-electro-montage
I was going to complain that Mr. Oizo was last billed in the blurb, being by far the most talented in that list (IMnotsoHO), but that he gets his own little link makes up for it. KILL KILL EVERYONE THIS...

Commented on The Mind-Blowing World of Human Chimeras
Chimeras are crazy and mind blowing and all, but I'm still just chuckling at the people trying to dissect a Simpson's quote....
-
Commented on Shatnerquake: bizarro novel about every Shatner character sucked into reality to hunt down William Shatner
ZippySpinCycle @19: Yes Jack, but how many Shats do you think you can handle at once? Also, IRT the "Seven" clip: effing win on the Star Trek door "woosh" sound....

Commented on Anti-kid modifications to public steps
With this talk about both kid licensing and the responsibility of the parents to teach kids to not be obnoxious: How about parent licensing?...

Commented on Super Mario mosaic table
Oh c'mon, is having sore thumbs after pushing thousands of those things in really that surprising? Granted, I have the advantage with double jointed thumbs, but I digress....

Commented on Stuffed Toy From a Child's Drawing
I blogged about FAO's particularly curious adherence to the children's desgins awhile ago....

Commented on High-resolution Tetris
I have to say I more enjoyed playing the polar opposite of this: Burning Man's four story tall Tetris game which you play on one huge cock-piece. One of my proudest moments was getting the high score for the evening...

Commented on American Former Gay Pr0n Star Is Big In Japan
And here I was thinking that Ronald McDonald Insanity was the most absurdly insanely Japanese thing on YouTube....
-
Commented on Willy Wonka-style golden ticket contest for marijuana
It's too bad that the movie was a pretty big snore-fest. The early 90's nostalgia was the only thing it had going for it - strip that away and it's just another lackluster coming of age film....
-
Commented on "Citizen videos" spread online showing BART police officer shooting unarmed man to death
Holy shit, that's four or five stops away from me. I've been seeing handmade signs around but hadn't looked into it yet. I gotta say I agree with Capt. Tim - if this guy goes free, there will be riots....

Commented on Split tongue video
Tongue splitting is freaking awesome. One of my favorite body mods, altho I'm still too chicken shit to do any myself. (Also I'm aware of my incredibly indecisive fickle nature.) On a side note, I've only recently discovered that I...

Commented on Top 500 worst passwords
"Okay, what are the three most commonly used password?" "Uhhh, love, sex... and uh... secret!" "And don't forget God man. System administrators love to use God, it's that whole male ego thing." "Hey man, who ate all my fries?"...

Commented on Got a Christmas tree in the house? Don't forget to water it.
A recent trick I have learned this season is to saturate the water you feed your tree with sugar. It simulates the sap running and keeps the pines even healthier and not-falling-off-er. I'm also guessing less inflamable, but I haven't...

Commented on US Air Force's metal band
Frankly when it involves the loss of human life, I don't find those kinds of "mistakes" to be within acceptable boundaries. @44 Binary Loop: I hardly think much of your tax dollars are being spent on this band. I'm sure...

Commented on Daily tracking of 40 things about yourself
Not to be a Negative Nancy, but that people feel better when they exercise and overeat when they're depressed is hardly something which we needed hardcore data to discover....

Commented on I made this, you play this, we are enemies -- the weirdest goddamned game I've ever played
Absolutely effing awesome. This has brightened my day so much (and I got a job today, so to make it much better is a tough... job)....
-
Commented on Defective By Design's Xmas DRM boycott -- 35 days and 35 products that don't deserve your money
I agree with DSSTRKL - lambast the software, not the hardware, especially if that hardware doesn't have any particular DRM-enforcement built in. At least the iPhone would seem like a slightly more appropriate product....

In best Spock impression: "Fascinating."...

Commented on Honkin' On My Crack Pipe
Agreed on the Weenishness (now there's a word that should get put into regular usage), but it has this joyous, theatrical quality to it that Ween don't quite have IMO. Loved the song and the vid!...
-
Commented on Beck's Gamma Ray
Listen to the music, not the man. Cool vid, very reminiscent of Smashing Pumpkins' "Tonight Tonight" video around the 2:30 mark....

Commented on Breakdowns: Portrait of the Artist as a Young %@&*! by Art Spiegelman
I saw Spiegelman talk about this newest book a couple weeks ago at Book Shop Santa Cruz. It's amazing how much passion this man has for comics. I mean, he's been in the "scene" since years before I was even...

Commented on Air Force Aims to 'Re-Write Laws of Cyberspace'
Tom @16 I've been Googling around the internets and can't find any source to say that in the instances which I described it is proper to use an apostrophe. However, in the examples you cited it is. From what I...

Commented on Man's account of ordering a live monkey from comic book ad
That is so awesome. I was entirely expecting the story to have the tragic end with the father killing the poor primate for biting his son all over. This makes me much happier after that mouseybread thing....

Commented on NYT and ProPublica seek $1 million to put news source docs online
First documents went the way of the dodo in the time when everyone got their information from secondary news corporations. I think this is one of the biggest boons to society which the internet will become in the long run....

Commented on Air Force Aims to 'Re-Write Laws of Cyberspace'
Their PC's are a nightmare of malware, porn, trojans, porn, Kazza, porn and then more porn. They've never heard of Firefox and have Yahoo messenger running on Explorer 5. gah! Exactly. That's hardly the setup of your average "pirate." The...
